When I first saw the stack overflow V2 macro pad I thought it would make a funny joke as a gift for my friend. I ended up buying two and we have both since used them regularly in our daily set up. The fact that these are QMK compatible making them easy to reprogram is where the real value comes in. Not many people need a designated Copy and Paste key but I love using mine as media keys for play/pause and forward or back skip.
I forget to use it most of the time, but when I'm really having trouble with something and start thinking to go to stackoverflow and I see it sitting right there it's so funny
It's a fun little desk toy that doubles as a productivity enhancer. The lighting software is not as simple as it could be, but that's this hobby in a nutshell
Just about a perfect pad. Lots of lighting options. I reprogrammed the macros to media controls. Wish I didn't have to open the base to change the macro settings. Lighting control could have a dedicated button.
I have both V1 and V2 of this, it's a fun novelty. I know it's impossible, but I wish we could get the weight of the first with the lighting of the second. Would buy again as a fun gift.
