5 Days With The Moonlander

I got tired of using my shitty Redragon K561 mechanical keyboard. It doesn't have hotswappable switches and some of its switches don't generate any sort of feedback or click anymore. I bought the K561 back in 2017.

I've been looking for a high quality ready-to-use 65% replacement but couldn't find anything easily obtainable and worth buying. For some reason, I decided to go ahead and buy a ZSA Moonlander. After losing $30 dollars because ZSA and Shopify decided to flag me as suspicious, I spent approximately $480 ($365 for the keyboard, $115 went to thieves in New Delhi and I was told that I was lucky they didn't get more) to get the Moonlander delivered on 14th December.

Although the improvement in my body posture, especially my back, has been noticeable, my typing speed reduced from around 80-90 wpm to 15-20 on the first day. This is the 5th day and I've barely crossed more than 40 wpm.

I hope I don't regret spending all that money on the Moonlander.
