Winter Mechanical Keyboard Survey
« on: Mon, 01 February 2016, 21:30:16 »
Hi all,
6 months ago I did a mechanical keyboard survey that got around 700 responses.

I'm doing another one to see what has changed since then as the community grows! If you want to be a part of it, you can fill out your response here (should only take  1 or 2 minutes). All the results will be made public once the survey is over, no personal info required.

Thanks

Shame that buckling spring wasn't split into capacitive (Model F) and membrane (Model M). They feel completely different.

Another ridiculous survey that ignores Alps and other great switches such as Hi-Tek and SMK.

And "where do you buy your keyboards?" without "ebay" as an option? Huh?

And just like last time it's hopelessly biased :p .

If the "main thing you're looking for in a keyboard"'s number 1 answer is "Cherry" again I'm going to **** myself :p .

Where do you buy keyboards should have an option "wherever I can find them" a.k.a "looking for things that are too rare to have a choice of vendor".

Better prepare a diaper then.

The only reason it's there is because of companies like Corsair and their "#real #mech #or #nothing #cherry ## #hashtag" marketing. And there's A LOT of Corsair fanboys on reddit.

But yeah, if it's as hopelessly biased as the last one than I'm not even gonna touch that.

Passing on this round, since I have some stuff inbound, and preferences may change when it arrives. I suspect I'd wind up selecting "other" for most of the questions anyway.
