Hi everybody! I type a lot since i am a programmer and a student but i also play videogames (like minecraft and various indies) and since my setup is pratically just a laptop and a mouse it sometimes is just not very comfortable so i want to buy for my first time a keyboard

I was looking for a keyboard that is not smaller than a 75% and the XDA profile is my preferred, for switches…well i don’t really know much but something not very noisy would be good

there are any mechanic keyboard under 25€? I am very low budget and i may even consider to buy from second hand markets and I can build it myself if that mean that i can save money;

thank you for using your time to answer!

    with that tight of a budget, you have two choices.

    1. you can get a mechanical keyboard from taobao for as low as CN¥80 (€9.5) plus shipping. be careful of listed pricing on taobao, because if it’s too good to be true, that’s because that pricing reflects a lesser default option like a barebones kit with no switches or keycaps.

    2. you can go with any cheapo dell or hp office keyboard that you can scrounge up for free, and save up for something better that you can find a review on from keyboard content creators.
