I'm mainly looking at either the POK3R or ducky mini, what do you guys prefer?

welcome to geekhack! i would pick the standard layout infinity keyboard that shows up every once in a while on massdrop. it's programmable, short right shift with fn to emulate hhkb layout, and switch customizability. 10/10

Recently became owner of kbp v60. The layout is pretty great and it's not super pricey. Not big fan of the plastic case and it has no programming utilities for end user, but can be updated from usb. I'm actually trying to crack open their official patches, so hopefuly you'll see some custom firmwares in near future. Definitely a great board for modding.

This is what I would pick as well, programmable keyboards are the bomb.. and you can choose to have MassDrop do the assembly so no tools needed. Otherwise, I'd probably pick the Pok3r over the Ducky Mini, for its mostly programmable layer and slimmer case. Both are nice boards though!

Welcome to Geekhack!

The only 60% I have is my HHKB :p

The Pok3r has a slimmer bezel, but the Ducky has a metal case (at least partly metal).

Either should be a great keyboard, and both have a standard layout which makes keycaps replacement so much easier.

Me personally, I would probably lean towards the Ducky (I have 3 other Duckys already).
