Hello everyone, No more infinity ergodox anymore. https://input.club/official-halo-switch-statement/

vvlierbergheThis is a misrepresentation of Massdrop's statement. Massdrop isn't kicking all IC products off their website, they're just no longer collaborating with IC to produce the HALO switches. IC has NEVER claimed that they will cease the Ergodox Infinity groupbuys. In the future, maybe you should try to actually read the articles you link to instead of spreading misinformation.

Segfault0xFFHaha thank you. I*m a drama queen.
I have been waiting for longer then a year for this. Without the ergodox, i can't continui programming. My keyboard doesnt allow me totype and work faster.

vvlierbergheAt the moment, Vvlierberghe, I'm still waiting for a Planck keyboard that I've ordered in February. It was initially supposed to be delivered on May 15, which is already quite a time gap for me since I'm not used to that sort of waiting line anymore. It is now scheduled to be shipped at the end of June (= delivered mid-July). This delay, coupled with the fact Massdrop moderators erased my lengthy conversation with Olivier Pons (one of the creators of the now deceased Ergofip), is quite enough to say I'll try to forget everything about Massdrop once I get my package. I do hope we get to talk together again in the future, Vvliberghe, just, outside of MD.

ChlorosThat would be cool. Method of contact? Social media, post war pigeon?
I don't have patients with this drop anymore. I need it to boost my career. I'm going to buy the ergodox ez. Sad that the ez doesn't have lcd display.

vvlierbergheWell by now you probably noticed I'm not exactly part of the Gen Z. When it comes to stay in contact on the Internet, I tend to stick to good ol' emails. If I tell you I'm using Microsoft's hotmail service and that I'm French, you should be able to contact me very easily. I look forward to speak with you and see how you're doing with that future Ergodox EZ of yours. We'll be able to share our keyboard experiences, ain't that cool ^_^/ ?

ChlorosHi Cloros, thank you for letting know our long conversation has been deleted, it was very interesting and constructive for everyone here, so this is a clear sign that new moderators doesn't know what an actual keyboard is and dont do a good job.
You can reach me at olivier.pons on gmail (it can't be easier!).
I have a planck keyboard, a preonic keyboard, and the Infinity.
Here are my notes for the ergonomic side: - 20/20 for the Infinity - 18/20 for the preonic - 09/20 for the planck (the missing row is definitely a major problem, I just can't use the keyboard at all)
Here are my notes for the source code + compilation: - with qmk_firmware : 20/20 for all the keyboards (and that's what you get with preonic and planck) - with original Infinity firmware : kiibohd : 05/20 (it wasn't even working on the Infinity right out of the box (and the author did recognize this himself WTF you have to look for older kiibohd releases))
The only thing that is better IMHO with plank and preonic is the sound: I've assigned a "bip" when going "up" layer and "bop" when going down, and it's incredibly effective! I'm missing those beeps on my Infinity, but everything else is much better on the Infinity!

OlivierPonsHi Olivier, thank you very much for the email too, I'll definitely contact you when I'm back home ^_^ . It's a shame that our long conversation got deleted, I really thought it could have been very useful to many people.
The Planck I ordered in February was scheduled for May and delivery was delayed again just this week because there are not enough parts. Can't deny I'm really worried if the missing row is really that much of a problem, I hope you won't mind if I contact you at some later point for help.
By the way, I'm running Ubuntu 18.04 at the moment, do you think I'll be able to compile the QMK firmware without having to use some sort of Windows emulator?
=____= Now I'm really missing some Youtube ASMR videos of the Planck and Ergodox. Last one (an unboxing of the Falbatech Ergodox) is already a big month old. Vvlierberghe, when you receive that Ergodox EZ of yours, be sure to send us a little thrill, 'kay?

vvlierbergheJust got the Planck, still need to assemble it. At the moment I'm still looking for clients who need EN>FR subtitlers in electronics & IT just to make sure I can secure my business and buy myself an Ergodox, a Preonic and a couple of cute keycaps :p . I'm already looking forward to see how you configured your Ergodox layout to suit your workflow.
