pok3r is a solid rear end board. picked one up after getting tired of trying to comfortably type codes on a laptop keyboard for 30+ hours a week. it's small enough to fit in my messenger bag, & the programmable layers are a pretty excellent feature.

being an autist re: emacs user, being able to macro something like C-c C-d g to Fn+g in a certain layer is extremely nice to have as an option. plus, being able to bind the caps to ctrl on the board itself alone makes it a good choice.

just make the smart choice and get it with browns. although i typed on a board with topres for the first time a couple days ago and that's a really pleasant typing experience, i tell you what.

i've got a das keyboard with browns at work and want something clickier at home. i was thinking blues but don't really know what boards are worthwhile. gotta be that 104 key tho

the code for some reason seems to have more backplate ping than the WASD. honestly the only differnce is the backlighting anyway. im typing on one now. its plain and classy.

blues are orders of magnitude clickier

refernce - i have both CODE and WASD and the backlighting is the only thing I htink is different. oh and i dunno if the WASD had a clears option but CODE certainly does.

the best board is the board youre used to. after gibving these clerars a decent try i like them. as much as blues? who cares

you're thinking browns, clears are p unique and have a variable weight that goes from 55nm to 95nm at the bottom

ive been trialing the clears for a few days now. definitely more used to it. its actually quite nice when youre used to it, hardly ever bottom out on it and its nice and quiet. its more handcrafted-timber feel while the blues are more precision plastic feel
