What is SpaceFN and why you should give it a try
The SpaceFN concept - setting up your space key as a layer switch when held - is probably one of the most useful tweaks in the keyboard hobby. Let me explain how it works. My SpaceFN article on kbd.news made some rounds recently - quite surprisingly given the age of this concept. This piece you're reading is a condensed version of the full post. If you're left with unanswered questions, you'll most likely find the info you're looking for in the original write-up. On my imaginary top list of the most useful keyboard features, tweaks and hacks, SpaceFN would deserve a podium finish for sure. But what makes it so special? In short: SpaceFN is easy to implement, easy to learn, costs nothing, can be used with any keyboard, and can improve your productivity instantly. I will list its benefits below, but can state right at this point that the SpaceFN concept, setting up your space key as a layer switch when held, is clearly one of the most useful tweaks in the keyboard hobby....

In fact, before we did our group buy, different switch options weren't even something they considered. It was only through our group buy were they able to leverage their production capabilities to offer all the switches and options you are seeing on Amazon now. It goes without saying, but it is incredibly unprofessional and unfair to us that they've shipped out to their other customers before fulfilling our group buy when it is all of you that made this product what it is.
I've already reached out to the vendor to see if there are additional savings for us and will update everyone when I hear back.
I bought two units from the first drop and I still get irritated whenever somebody tells me "you coulda got that from Taobao for way cheaper".
@YanboWu you shouldn't just "reach out" to the vendor, you should be tearing them a new one.
Blarg just needed to vent using this rubber dome keyboard is getting to me :(
