Epic is giving "Filament" for free.
Looks like an interesting puzzle game.
And the ones coming next week look nice too

I've been using my current keyboard for over 15 years now, and it's time to throw it in the trash and get a new one. It uses batteries and is wireless, and I'm tired of keeping batteries around, and rather go back to a corded keyboard. I like the palm rest on my keyboard, and it's a straight design, Microsoft Wireless Desktop Elite.
So I'm looking for a new one. Some keyboards are $189 USD now. I like mechanical keys, and RGB lighting would be cool I think. Just wondering if there is a great keyboard out there that programmers love.
Not like the old days where I went to Comp USA and tried them out.
[update 1]
I ordered the Logitech MX keys for business.
I do need to get a couple of keyboards so I'll a couple of them out.

[Update 2]
I bought the ...
Das Keyboard 6 Professional Backlit Wired Mechanical Keyboard - Tactile Cherry MX Blue Switches, Shine-Through Keycaps, 2-Port USB C Hub, Media Controls, Durable Aluminum Enclosure, Volume Knob, NKRO - $200 on Amazon
Very Expensive, but I've been sitting on a pile of Amazon gift cards all year to pay for it, and cashed them in for this. It seems to have everything I want, and is all aluminum construction as well.
[update]
So now I bought 2 keyboards. I'll keep the one I like most. Can't wait to throw away my current keyboard. Tired of missing characters when I type.

Yes, I like my keyboard for coding. Nothing fancy, Logitech G213.
There are some really nice mechanical keyboards out there that I like, a little pricey but I am sure they are worth it.

The codewitch was raving about hers a while ago. I really like my Azio, but hers sounds nicer.

I use the Logitech Wave K350 wireless keyboard. Batteries last close to a year.

I came close to buying that one.

I liked my Das Model S Professional keyboard so much I bought another one after I accidentally ruined my old one (drink issue). Been using this model for ~10-11 years now and counting. Nothing fancy, just a solid mechanical keyboard. Feels good for typing and gaming (Cherry MX brown switches - plate mounted so it feels solid). Lots of good keyboards out there though!

I liked using Logitech K200

Personally I would go for a compact or 60% keyboard as that leaves more room for using the mouse.
Also I would choose a mechanical keyboard with switches that aren't too loud.

I switched to the 60% style (Keychron) last year for that very reason - to have room for the mouse on my stand-up desk. I never learned to touch-type on the number keypad anyway so I don't miss it.

Let me preface this post by stating the following:
Conventional keyboards do not follow the anatomy of the human body.
Short backstory: many years ago, due to multiple repetitive stress injuries in my wrist and elbow (I also do sports and play musical instruments), I switched to ergonomic keyboards (split design, negative tilt and tenting) after having talked to a few orthopedists.
I am happy to say that I am now four year injury free
I am currently using the Microsoft Ergonomic Keyboard both at home and at work.
The keys are nothing to write home about - they are rubber dome, however it'super affordable.
I would prefer mechanical switches (I do use an old Razer Orbweaver with mechanical keys + trackball for gaming), however ergonomic keyboards with mechanical keys are usually way overpriced.

+1 for ergo keyboard. I sprung for a mechanical one, refurbished, several years ago. Greatly reduced discomfort due to arthritis. Prices on the newer split, programmable, boards are insane. One new release sells for $400+ and is in short supply. Someone sold one on eBay for over $1K. Like I said, insane.

Sadly you are right ^^
A couple months back I built myself a Lily58 from splitkb.com. (however those are only split and you'll have to tinker and further customize it yourself to implement negative tilt and tenting)
It was my first soldering job, so a few of the keys suffer from cold joints, thus recently one stopped working, haven't gotten around to fixing that yet, since I use the Microsoft Ergonomic Keyboard most of the time anyway.

I bought this one earlier this year:
Logitech G915 LIGHTSPEED RGB... https:
Itβs a little loud but I work from home so it doesnβt bother me. I did have to put a piece of cardboard under the programmable keys on the left hand side because I kept accidentally pressing them.

I've been using Logitech k740-backlit-illuminated keyboards for years[^] Love them - quiet, minimal travel and force required, makes typing a breeze. I used to get carpal tunnel and used those fancy curved keyboards to fix that, but the Logitech requires such light touch that I can use a "straight" keyboard with no issues.

YES. The Das 5QS is amazing. It is like butter. It is durable as heck. I beat on my keys.
It is among the best $200 I have spent on my PC.
Also each key has individually programmable RGB lighting. You can write widgets or they have them to monitor CPU/GPU usage, incoming email, github stuff. whatever. So your keyboard can talk back to you with its lights.
