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.

But I don't have any story to share about how I got into mechanical keyboards. Attest not any good ones.
