Title: Top 3 keysets of 2017
Post by: avid on Sat, 08 July 2017, 07:45:36
Whats your top 3 keysets of 2017?

My favourites are;
#1 GMK Nautilus:  Probably one of my all-time favourite sets.
#2 GMK Solarized Dark:  One of the better stealth-sets.
#3 GMK Laser:  Loud, synth, daft punk. Yes.

1. GMK Laser
2. GMK Solarized Dark
3. SA Oblivion

Honorable mentions to SA Carbon and GMK Honeywell. They look good, but I tend to prefer darker colors.

Already shipped sets, IC, in GB sets? Imaginary sets?

I'm all about that Miami/Miami nights/dolch reborn. Little bit more grey on green and terminal would be terminally trill.

Lag error leading to double post.


Let's also say that handarbeit is and will always be the best set ever

Strictly speaking of sets released (or to be released in 2017)... Oblivion (SA and GMK), GMK Laser, and two-way tie between GMK Terminal and Hyperfuse Redux. Honorary top vote to SA Godspeed :)

1. GMK Yuri
2. MT3 /dev/tty
3. GMK Laser

None have been made yet but from the renders and such these are my favorites as of now. GMK Coniferous and GMK Terminal receive an honorary mention from me.

No love here for Jessica's GMK Plum (https://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=83969.0)? I know some people are bent 'cause the colors didn't come out exactly like the renders but still a very nice set with unique colors. Very sharp looking.

I'm pretty unimpressed with most colorways I've seen this year. Laser stands out to me as being especially bad, both for the colorway and the runner.

GMK oblivion looks nice, and I might pick up a set of GMK muted after it ships. GMK Soware is also good, but a little hard to read in the dark for my tastes.

My top 3
1. gmk hyperfuse
2. gmk plum (I know the colors weren't what people expected but still a very nice set)
3. gmk violet delights (I'm not sure if ICs count on this but that is my end game set and I am in love with it)
p.s. pls go check out the IC thread for my third pick on reddit, its absolutely gorgeous.

This needs clarification on what "of 2017" means.  :rolleyes:

I'd agree, but this isn't really for anything but discussion, so does it matter?  :p

I'm confused because I'm seeing people mention keysets which came out before 2017 or haven't released yet, so I don't know if 2017 means keysets you like in 2017, released in 2017, or are in IC/GB in 2017.  :-\

I am too, honestly.  But with the thread not being about anything nor going to result in anything, I just let it drop. :thumb:

Buy was live in 2017 or caps received in 2017?

Caps in 2017:
1. Dancer 
2. Dasher 
3. GMK Aero

Buys in 2017:
1. GMK Aero
2. TBD
3. TBD

Buys for 2017 haven't really tugged much at me.  There's some ICs that seem promising that I'm not including.

Nothing.  This year has been unimpressive so far.

Edit:  Definitely stock HHKB.  Not much that is sold today can beat it  ;)
