What is your favorite Steam deck Bluetooth keyboard? (slrpnk.net)

I recently started to play a crafting mmorpg (bitcraft) and while it runs great on the steam deck, the controls are not great. I have been playing with an old dell usb keyboard and Bluetooth trackball. I would like to find a great Bluetooth keyboard. So many of the wireless keyboards I have looked at require a dongle, which limits my ability to charge unless I use a dock.

I would rather a larger keyboard than a smaller one.

so I originally got mine for my PC and that’s where I mainly use it, but I also use it with my Steam Deck sometimes via Bluetooth

I have the Epomaker EK68 and it’s a 65% sized keyboard so it’s smaller than a full sized one but not too tiny. I find it nice because it’s not TOO compact but can slip into a backpack without taking up too much space. It can connect with USB, dongle, or Bluetooth and switches between them with a little switch on the back. It’s mechanical and you can swap the key switches for whatever type you want

Overall not too expensive either
