Keychron K2
Having broken my beloved Varmilo VA108M (which I absolutely intend to fix one day in the near future, FYI,) months ago and just last week completely totaled the period (.) key on my Absurdly Overpriced Toilet Professional iPad Keyboarding Apparatus, I decided to buy an on-sale variant of Keychron's K2 with the loudest switches (the blue ones) available, assuming that surely no keyboard could be truly, disruptively loud.
I was very wrong.
I do love that one can connect it via USB-C (not that it makes sense in any situation I can imagine) and that there's a dedicated screenshot key!
I do believe I have broken the period (.) key on the iPad Professional's Absurdly Priced Keyboard Attachment Gizmo. $400 down the d.d.drain!
