My wife isn't going to be happy about this... I have an ErgoDox EZ at home, and a Moonlander for work. I absolutely love these keyboards. They have played a significant role in reducing pain I experience from arthritis.

I love my ErgoDox so much. If it broke, I would immediately purchase a new one. Cannot imagine trying to go without it.

What's with the gradient/rainbow led trend? Is it just me that don't have the necessary cultural references to find it appealing? To me I immediately associate it with an unprofessional, cheap look.

I don't like it either but if it's like the moonlander it's fully customizable and uses QMK under the hood, so the sky is the limit.

I don't really like having a lightshow on my keyboard so the LEDs are off all the time for me but in the past I've used them to change color depending on the layout I'm using for instance. I'm sure a more creative hacker could come up with something useful.

I can totally relate. I bought my ErgoDox EZ a while ago and I still love it.

I changed the switches for some lubed linears, and added some foam and now it even sounds better. It also reduced my wrist pain.

I'm debating with myself whether to get the Moonlander or not. I don't actually need it, but it looks so cool (and the USB port of the ErgoDox is quite outdated haha).

Your wife micromanages your budget?

Yes, RGB has been popular for many years now. Nice that I can pick any color or color pattern I like
