OK i may want a new key board, can someone who is good at the keyboard technologies advice me
I’m finding it very difficult to find the very specific kind of one i want — a thin keyboard with keys that are soft to press and don’t bulge out a lot, as is common in modern laptops with scissor-switch keyboards, BUT also with high key rollover (i.e. amount of keys pressed at once that the keyboard is guaranteed to distinguish at minimum, all my keyboards have 2-key rollover which is BAD)
The thing is, high key rollover is apparently typically associated with mechanical keyboards (which i do not want, i want soft flat keys that do not resist my fingers), but thin low-profile soft-to-press keyboards that i like the feel of are typically cheap-ass ones with 2-key rollover. But I want both of the nice things, is this even possible?
