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....

"If you're reading this you're probably wondering how this keyboard compares to the Torpe/Novatouch keyboard. Well I own the Novatouch keyboard and two Topre keyboards. Granted all my Topre/Novatouch keyboards are now on ebay. I found the topre keyboard's bottoming out was too harsh and painful for my fingers. Moving to the Plum84 keyboard, how does it compare? I find the keyboard to be superior in typing experience and bottoming out experience than the Topre keyboards. Like the Royal Kludge keyboard the stems suffer from a little bit of scratchiness that is something that could be improved. If you're looking for a topre experience I wouldn't recommend it. If you want a Topre experience buy a real Topre, but if you want something that feels great and is fantastic to type on get this keyboard! I have all Topre keyboards 30g, 45g, and 55g and this is hands down the better experience."
