I've participated in a number of collectible hobbies over several decades. Participating in the keyboard hobby for 3/4 of a year has been short-lived but enjoyable. My touch-typing has more than doubled in speed, I now own 7 keyboards with 2 more group-buys on the way, I gave another keyboard to my son.... I have 40% to 100% boards, Topre, Buckling-Spring, etc.... I probably am $3K-$4K into this hobby, but as far as hobbies go, that is low cost to be pretty immersed with key brands and technologies of the hobby. Definitely no regrets, but I feel a bit like I've already hit the end of the internet with this one. It definitely needs to go more upscale, somehow. I'll still stay engaged, but there hardly is any next thing I seek. The depth and breadth of the hobby is only slightly deeper than the vacuum collecting and snow blower collecting communities I've participated in... nothing like watches, cameras, knives, TV's, stereos, leather boots or even the barista coffee machine collecting communities, etc....
This may be an unpopular keyboard opinion.
