Like some other users on this forum, my first keyboard was a mechanical—for me it was the AEK II. I later sold it and then there was a 20-year stint of rubber-dome dark ages wherein I kept asking myself, "Why do I hate hate this ****ing keyboard so much?", not knowing the answer. Then I started reading up on mechanical keyboards and realized what had happened: keyboards became cheap and more or less disposable.
Now I've found this community. You guys are awesome! Also, I can't stop buying new mechanicals so to justify my "collection" I started a kb review website called maccklack.com. I literally have dozens of mechanicals so I'll be writing reviews for years. It's slanted towards Mac users (please don't judge), since there isn't a lot of mech keyboard reviews for those of use the Mac.
So there's my story. Great to meet everyone!
