Tempting, but the lack of a tenkey is a dealbreaker. Need it for work.

The keyboard works fine on Linux, as do the big buttons (I have this keyboard). The remapping software doesn't though.

Is "Hot-swappable PCB" the same as "Hot-swappable Switches?"

Not being compatible with MacOS and Linux is a deal breaker for me.

I think it depends on the distro. In the reviews, some people say nothing works and some people say it's okay for the basic functionalities.

No backlight for the keys. Deal breaker for me, otherwise looks quite nice.

Those look great, thank you! How is the quality on Keychron boards? I see they use Gateron switches which admittedly I have no experience with. I'm currently on a Ducky with Cherry switches. The Q10 is especially tempting as it reminds me of the old Microsoft Natural keyboard layout.

I have the OnePlus 81 Pro [oneplus.com] (essentially the Q1 Pro with OnePlus customization). It's a perfect daily keeb for my use case, and I am pretty happy with the purchase. Additionally, I have the blue Q2 with knob, and as you already read up online, all Keychron Qx keebs are top of the line.

What does that even mean? Chicken pecking large numbers is somehow better for carpal tunnel?
