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?

A truly caring team of workers
The Massdrop team is amazing and adamant about the communities they work in, let's take AlexPeterkin as a example you can find him in pretty much every discussion page and I can say I've had many conversations with him. He's just one example of the great team.
A amazing community
Now i'll use a amazing member of the community named Makami as a example, he is a great sum up of all of the good in the community willing to help anyone who has questions, he's great just like the rest of us geeks.
A great sense of humor
I'm sure everyone in the mech keys community remembers the trash keycap (literally) which I loved since it was such a good joke, even though most people thought it was serious, but it shows how this site doesn't need to be taken too seriously I can say without a doubt we are all friends here.
So overall thank you Massdrop and all of your team and this great community you've made, for all of us nerds to have a home <3
