DCX vs DCD vs DCL - Drop’s Keycap Profiles Explained
We’ve covered the basics of keycap profiles before—spherical/cylindrical, sculpted/uniform, etc. One thing that has come up more and more over the years as we’ve expanded our portfolio of offerings here at Drop is the distinction between some of our similar profiles.

A blank keyboard can help you to resist the temptation of looking at the letters, forcing you to type through finger memory.
Tip 3: Use Shortcuts We spend plenty of time to practice, and sometimes we forget the easiest and most effective way: remember some shortcuts. It wouldn’t take you much time to learn some basic keyboard shortcuts, whereas they really help.
Tip 4: Ergonomics People pay increasing attention to ergonomics, including those who want to improve their typing skills and those who spend plenty of time in typing, working or gaming. Ergonomics has covered the keyboards, the chairs, and the desks. All these elements could affect your typing speed and typing fatigue. However, investment in those ergonomics equipment is not necessary. You can improve typing speed and reduce typing fatigue according to the following instructions.
