I don't think people who care for this level of detail run windows.

kinguAh yes, those people with custom watercooling loops who color-match their motherboards, RAM, GPU, and PSU in their gaming PCs to the ambient lighting in their room? They only run Linux and OSX. But alas, the few of those people who run Windows probably don't put the same attention to their keyboards. Lol why you looking down on Windows users like we don't care about details?

ZALHERAThis is where you invented an accusation. Then you added onto it your generalizations and sprinkled with preconceived notions. Much in the same way I did.
I shared an opinion. Ignorant as it may be, one that is derived from how there is no mutual exclusivity between attention to detail, and this toy OS in particular. One that seems to think that my keyboard is a place for advertisement. It isn't. Whether yours even has super-keys is not all that there is to this matter. Judging by the other comments on here, legends alone pose the most pressing issue to prospective buyers. Even if you assume that sentiment comes from windows-users, the need to do something about it is all the same. One assumptuous default appears not a selling argument, rather to the contrary. If you care enough to select a subset of alternative keyboard keys, chances are you might have applied the same scrutiny, rather than popular choice, to your other computing. A blank layout option covers more ground, since you can then not apply said critique to the many errors made therein, in what is objectively a nïche product to begin with. All told, given the users who want windows prints aren't the ones complaining, both are fine. I maintain that to be for different reasons.

kinguBlank keys are much desired, yes. But why are you defending that so much when I didn't even say anything in opposition to blank keys? My comment was not an attack to the plea for blank keys. Rather, it was made in jest towards your jab at Windows users in my attempt to raise the point that Windows users have fun with customization too. I just wanted to poke fun at the absurdity of the claim that people who care for this level of detail don't run Windows. In retrospect, I realize that I sounded more hostile than intended, and for that I apologize. But in the end, you admitted to the ignorance of your initial comment, which is all I really wanted. So have a good day sir, and I hope you get your blank keys sometime.

ZALHERAI'm questioning whether there is even a core market for windows labels on these. You hyped hyperbole, and missed the point.
It is still a saleable preposition, but the question remains, whatever be the case, windows user or not, are blank keys better, or more desired? I think so.

Does the ALT v2 PCBA support USB-C e-marked cables?
Currently my ALT v1 does not work with e-marked USB-C cables. I was wondering if the v2 PCBA does support these types of cables (thunderbolt 4 cable for example)?

How do you do per-key RGB lighting on a Shift V2?
I saw the online configurator that lets you do this on the Shift V1, where it spits out a compiled firmware file to flash. The V2 doesn't seem to have this function in the Windows configurator, though. I can't imagine the answer here is "you're going to have to manually write the hex for every key in QMK, compile it, and flash that".
