my hot take on keyboards is that if they have a "function" key, they're not big enough.
If you want to have a key do two things, simply put a second key somewhere to do that other thing
like all those keyboards where F1 is "mute" and func-F1 is real F1?
just add another row of keys, and label them with your new multimedia commands
I demand this even though I currently can't use keyboards over like 500g. Figure it out, science, make me a keyboard that is lightweight AND the size of a monotype keyboard
someday I'm gonna build a monotype panel (so half of this) and then solder like 5 of them together, with a rotating chair in the middle. I'll be able to type on 15 varieties of QWERTY at once
60% keyboard? You poor thing, that's not enough keys. I use a 1500% keyboard. I have individual keys that would require more than 10 fingers to press on your silly little incomplete keyboard
I push one carefully labeled key and my keyboard presses H-E-R-E-S-A-N-I-C-K-L-E-K-I-D-G-O-B-U-Y-A-R-E-A-L-K-E-Y-B-O-A-R-D
