A community for news, discussion, and showing off your mechanical keyboards
It sounds so hollow and doesn't even have mechanical switches, wtf: https://www.norbauer.co/pages/the-seneca
(...) promising an unprecedented typing experience that founder Ryan Norbauer unabashedly describes as "needlessly lavish" and "exuberantly irrational."
Am I missing something or is this still just a plastic keyboard we're talking about here? Not hand carved rosewood, not solid gold set with jewels? Exactly what is the extent of the "hand crafted by a single artisan" here?
The only thing "exuberantly irrational" about this scam is the price tag.
What is sensual typing? 😅
I understand there is a market for things at these ridiculous price points, but if I were to meet someone with this thing it would immediately raise red flags.
I'm 80% sure that actual typing experience on this piece is comparable to no-name membrane keyboard for $5.
I wouldnt go that far.
If you are used to typing on a nice mechanical keyboard (one for $100), you will notice the difference when moving to a lowest cost possible membrane keyboard available.
Well it's a scam aimed at people that fetishize handmade things, I fully expect them to be as cheap and scummy about it as humanly possible.
