Mods are super aggressive and petty on Reddit, and I think there is an unspoken policy to never reverse any perma ban no matter the situation because it makes them look wrong. If it is a permanent account suspension your chances are less than 0%. If it is just a sub ban you can try messaging the mods of that sub or submitting an appeal, but it is likely they will see this as an aggression and mute you from being able to contact them again without any further explanation or discourse.

I'd say you've been blessed. Forget Reddit and move on, it is a cesspool full of corrupt mods that have no leashes or consequences. Reddit mods answer to no one, and do not care about the damage they cause to people's lives.
I create another account and they perma ban that one right away.

Making Stuff Together! / Do you use iOS keyboard haptics?
« Last post by gutta on Fri, 26 April 2024, 03:39:34 »
I always liked the audio feedback (“click”) that iOS keyboard produces while typing. However, most of the time my iPhone is in silent mode, making the typing experience completely flat.

I recently discovered that you can enable keyboard haptic feedback in Settings. Do you have this feature enabled as well or not (and why)?

Ergonomics / Re: First ergonomic keyboard
« Last post by vvp on Fri, 26 April 2024, 01:12:21 »
It took me about 2 week to completely adapt to Kinesis Advantage when switching from a standard ANSI layout sometimes in 2002. I would  not worry about being able to adapt if you like the new keyboard otherwise. I.e. the success of the switch is more about your attitude and less about the ability to get used to it.

Many mechanical switches are not that loud when compared to rubber dome. E.g. Cherry MX Brown or linear Cherry switches and their clones. Other people in the office did not complain about noise  when I switched. Many rubber domes are not that silent either.

Left-right separation and thumb clusters are the most important advantages of ergonomic keyboards.

Your budget seems small for a proper ergonomic keyboard which in my case means something like Kinesis Advantage360 but I'm using a custom build keyboard (K84CS). Try to ask your employer to provide you with a good keyboard. It should not be such a big deal and you will not need to pay for it.

I know this is a different layout but are there any concerns about having the same name as the 65% board designed by ok-c from Openkey Design?

Definitely not trying to step on anyone’s toes - our company name is PhaseByte and it’s our first board. We've been developing it since late 2021. Although we were not aware of that board until now, they obviously had the same great idea for a name!

Design

Front design
----
We adopts a simple and practical design language.



Side design
----
The line-cutting technique makes the side profile more design-oriented and customized.



Back design
----
We used the case's contour to echo the weight balance lines, creating an elegant visual experience between the weight and the bottom case.




Structure

Ball Catch Structure
---
We have adopted a suitable ball catch for the keyboard case, which can be symmetrically distributed on the shell.



Magnetic Connector
---
Able to simplify the assembly process.
We customized and opened molds for the fixed silicone at both ends of the daughter board,
which were designed with limit points to stabilize the inner liner connection.



3 in 1 Mount
---
It can support PCB GASKET, Plate GASKET, and TOP mount. You can customize your keyboard structure.



Anti-collision silicone
----
it avoids the hard contact between the top and bottom cases when assembled, significantly reducing the case's resonance and hollowness.



Typing Sound

Tri-mode HS PCB----wired, Bluetooth 5.0, and 2.4G mode.

Support QMK/VIA
Support multiple layout
Include 4400MHA capacity battery



Default Plate
----Non-flex cut POM

Other Geeky Stuff / Why is 5G so much cheaper than 4G
« Last post by tress on Thu, 25 April 2024, 21:10:43 »
I'm once again looking at possible 'upgrades' to my phone contract, 'upgrades' because I can save 20% in exchange for an 88% loss in data allowance staying on 4G, which isn't ideal.  But for the same price I can have an 800% increase in data on 5G?

I would suggest this is because they want to sell me a shiny new tracker phone but both options are sim only, so there must be some technical reason it's so much cheaper which makes no sense when there is no 5G coverage for about 95% of the UK so assumedly they need to put up many more masts.

What's going on?
