No you don't

Long live the numpad!

Calling a 96% a mental disorder says more about you, OP than a friggin keyboard.

[-] captainlezbian@lemmy.world 9 points 18 hours ago

The 96% actually looks reasonable

[-] AnimalsDream@slrpnk.net 13 points 21 hours ago

I've been moving toward preferring full keyboards, but I wish it were more normalized for them to put the numpad on the left side.

[-] sverit@lemmy.ml 2 points 18 hours ago

With the Everest Max you can choose on which side you dock your numpad: https://mountain.gg/keyboards/everest-max/

I've been trying a 75% tenkeyless but I do miss the number block haha. I really want to switch to a split ergo though, but it's a bit of investment to learn and configure.

[-] Soapbox1858@lemm.ee 20 points 1 day ago

I have a full-sized and a 96%. I don't know how people live without a numpad. Even my laptop has a numpad. I don't do excel shit. But at work I have to enter alot of phone and CC numbers. At home I use the numpad for rating photos when sorting and importing them.

I use the number pad for various keybinds in games where there are too many things to control with the keys I regularly use.

"He said the truth", but they hated him.

[-] rowdyrockets@lemm.ee 11 points 22 hours ago

I’m gonna catch some heat…. But I gotta speak my truth - this is all I need. I game, I program, I have 2 function keys that change the layout and provide access to any keys not physically present.

[-] GaMEChld@lemmy.world 11 points 21 hours ago

You do you man. We all got different hands and preferences and physical dimensions, as well as different usable desk space. It's silly to draw lines in the sand about peripherals. Personally, I like my giant gaming keyboard with macro keys and whatnot. I program the extra keys to do things as needed. But I wouldn't force that on anyone who wants a smaller form factor. Hell now we can even get picky on how much actuation force, key travel, and sound of key press. A keyboard for every preference!

I kind of wish Duolingo would create a trainer that helps you practice shortcuts and hot keys. They never seem to stick in my brain asides from copy/paste, new tab, change focus.

[-] megopie 11 points 22 hours ago

Look, I’m not an accountant, I don’t need a numpad.

[-] ZeffSyde@lemmy.world 6 points 21 hours ago

I worked retail in the late 90s-00s, and whenever I have to type in a string of digits longer than three I regret my tkl.

My cat, however, enjoys the extra real estate on the desk.

[-] JackbyDev@programming.dev 11 points 23 hours ago* (last edited 20 hours ago)

I love this meme, but I feel like including TKL in the circle would be a little more fitting. I know I'm a little biased for being a TKL user, but they really aren't that esoteric. Every key is where you expect it. It just doesn't have a numpad.

Ah yes, the klingon keyboard. Goes on the armrests of the captains chair.

If I could I would have two tiers and pedals like an organ master

[-] Daeraxa@lemmy.ml 13 points 1 day ago

No pedals but how about the Hyper7 R4?

[-] Sarcophagus@lemmy.world 1 points 5 hours ago

Beautiful! Thank you!

sorry but I agree. numpad masterrace. say no to degenerate keyboards.

[-] callyral@pawb.social 3 points 19 hours ago* (last edited 19 hours ago)

i have a 65% although honestly i'd rather it be a 75% (which i meant to buy but didn't look closely enough at the keyboard), anyway it's not that bad

i also with the damn apostrophe key wasnt the same as the esc key + fn

[-] IndustryStandard@lemmy.world 5 points 18 hours ago

65% is too cramped. Buttons need double functions and the FN key works overtime.

75% or TKL is the way.

[-] garretble@lemmy.world 5 points 22 hours ago

I use a Lily58 for work, and it's excellent. Obviously mine looks much different than the ones on this product page, but it's this layout.

Over here loving my 60%. It's all about modifier keys y'all. That 60% actually has all the keys your 130% and more all within reach.

Used full sized all my life, went TKL a month ago and love it, probably never go back to full size. I barely use the numpad on my personal pc anyways.

Fuck all the gatekeeping, choose whichever you like.

I dropped my full sized keychron a while back and the pcb got screwed up at the usb c port, so I'm stuck on a 60%. It's nice to have the extra desk space, but I'd be completely lost if I didn't have a macropad. Even still, it's kind of a pain in the ass sometimes. Eventually I'll be not-broke enough to justify getting a new pcb, hopefully, but I'm not even sure how to order just a pcb from them. Giant pain in the ass.

I do like my little Newman board, though. It has some nice linears that I lubed up and I've got a tape mod on it. I miss qmk but it's better than a membrane at least.

Originally I picked it up to use with my phone so I could get work done on the road without slowing my typing speed to a crawl and grappling with autocorrect. Made a decent backup!
