invention of somebody in China. Creativity taken to an extreme? Oh well, some geekhackers will like this, surely.

I am still waiting for someone to comment on the Customozable Marco (their spelling) keys, the Handy Dual Touch, the uder (their spelling) keyboard feature, the Expandable Pica Tinny Rail design, the Ex-Integration Module, etc...

Don't burn what you haven't figured out, my dear fanpeople. Or you'll be part of the sheeple like your avatar...

"mechanical" apparently means anything containing one or more MX switch...

The only aspect I find promising about that keyboard is that it has space for winding your cable on the bottom.
It is not an entirely new thing... and there have been enthusiast keyboards with that feature relatively recently, but it is not that common.
Gamers who go to LAN parties might like cable management at the bottom, and a carrying handle... but on the other side, the keyboard is much too large for a LAN party. People would rather bring keyboards in tenkeyless or 75% form factor. (some games use F-keys a lot, so 60% is out...)

It's a translation issue, they took "keyboard warrior" too literally.

Probably would start to fall apart after a week, but I've gotta say it's so ridiculous it works.

My 15-year-old son would trade his Filco TKL for it in a heartbeat.
"However, even though I was born in the Mesozoic, I do know what anyone who wants to reach out to young people should say: Billionaires took your money. They took your chance to buy a home. They took your chance at a good education. They stole your opportunities. Billionaires took the things you want in life. If you really want those things, you have to take them back.
That's the message. That's the whole message. Say that every day, not just to reach America's frustrated young white men, but people of every age, race, and gender.
Late-stage capitalism is a wealth-concentration engine, focused on vacuuming up every dollar and putting it in as few hands as possible. Republicans are helping that vacuum suck.
How does a tiny fraction of the population get away with this? They do it by dividing the other 99% of Americans against themselves."

Finally, a keyboard with a picatinny rail!  I've been waiting for this so I can mount my AR15 optics on my keyboard...

Is it just me, or has Ivan's English declined to Chinese standards?
