    I have a pair. They’re really cool, but I haven’t found a use case for them. They’re open-back, so I can’t use them when I’m working in public spaces. They require their own USB DAC/AMP, so I can’t use them in my analog chain at either my desktop or home theater. And the DAC/AMP requires too much power to use them with my phone, so I can’t use them while walking around. The only time I use them is when I’m working from home and for some reason I want to use my laptop in bed or in the living room instead of my desktop, which is rare.

    I have a ploopy mouse and it’s utterly fantastic.

    So many buttons and has QMK firmware so I have actual layers on my mouse!

            everything from rearranging the keys (for instance I use vim, so I swap esc and capslock), to changing tap and hold behaviors (my capslock key does esc on tap and ctrl on hold), to really elaborate stuff like tap dances (https://thomasbaart.nl/2018/12/13/qmk-basics-tap-dance/), all while being configured directly on the firmware of the keyboard, so it just works no matter what computer it’s plugged into, and it doesn’t have any weirdness that comes with software remapping tools.

    This looks really cool. Let’s say I want to get into this. I have no idea about 3d printing, PCB boars or low level programming. I’m a software developer. Where do I start to learn all this? Which part do I take on first?
