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....

As many others here have mentioned, two plum colors are way more saturated than they were originally marketed as. The keyboard market is flooded with very saturated, high contrast sets, so something with a little bit of desaturation was great to see--unfortunately it didn't turn out that way. And that's not to sell the keyset short, or the amount of work that Jessica and others put into making this happen, I'm just here to tell people who are considering buying this aftermarket that it will be different than what you were expecting.
I've attached a reference photo here to directly compare a (IMO well color-balanced) photo of the set to a render.
Thanks!
Thanks for putting those 2 images side by side. I'm going to use it whenever I get around to selling this thing. I want to make it clear to the future buyer what they're going to get.
