    I really like the Taeha Tallks segment. I have quit the hobby months ago but i regularly check up on what's happening and from stream highlights and sound tests to this? I really really love the concept and what you're doing. Actual in depth review of a board from one of the OGs of the hobby is such a delight to watch + the ambiance and aesthetic. Please continue doing this whether you separate the talks part and the board review or join em up i'd gladly watch them both.

    Enjoyed the hell out of this video! Your Mode Envoy review was very grounded, detailed & thorough.
    The ‘Taeha Talks’ piece was a great surprise! Loved the idea of a 1on1 or Q&A with you. A podcast would be such an amazing thing, I think it’s a very popular medium and is something that if set up correctly, would bring on a whole new audience. Whether it’s a variety show where keyboards, photography, music is discussed, or something more focused. I think it would be another way to enjoy your content without having to be live for your streams and in addition to your videos ❤️ overall, can count on my support!

    I had pulled the trigger on one of these a few months ago, just waiting for it to arrive at this point. It'll be my 4th keeb. I honestly can't wait to build it when it comes in.
    Edit: After watching the video. I genuinely really liked this format. Your style of presentation makes it very easy to just...enjoy and follow. The passion that you generally hold in regards to keyboards means that whatever other hobbies that you present, will probably have around the same level of passion.

    The only thing I'd say about the new mode keyboard is it probably has a good ability to be muted with both sets of foam installed which I personally like. The only thing I'm kind of curious about the lack of aluminum low profile cases for sale. It would be interesting to see why they're not as used as full height cases. I love all three sets of keycaps as well so pluses all around

    I really liked the end segment! The music was also really relaxing. Also, thanks for sharing your Japanese City Pop playlist on one of your streams a while back- I've been listening to it every now and then, and it never fails to put me in a good mood. Recently, I started looking to expand my music taste beyond J-Pop/Rock, so I look forward to your other suggestions as well.
    I think it'd be cool to see some of your other hobbies on the main channel as well; stuff like photography and vinyl have always been interesting to me, but I never really got into it. One of my recent hobbies (more like addiction) has been Gunpla. Fun stuff! Anyways, hope to catch another stream soon. Not really an active viewer, but I really enjoy the content when I get the chance to watch it.

    • @Mustanggt505
      @Mustanggt505 10 місяців тому

      yeah honestly I realized that I probably won't build an actual 200$ plus keyboard until have some good money laying around even then idk because for me I can get everything I want in a 100$ keyboard even hotswap and pre lubed for that price. After seeing how much cheaper it has gotten I just cant see the point of spending that much, I get it but its just not for me. I got a TH80 on prime day for 75$ down from 90$ I know its not all that and that people would probably not even call it custom but its perfect for me, in the future I'm definitely going to be trying out new switches . Also my buddy has GMMK pro with lubed pandas and my keyboard feels very very similar its just missing a slight metal sound and feel.

      I mean yes but no, theyre not doing this cause they are kind. They just notice a market segment that isn't being met demand wise by anyone yet, so they're all launching products to fill that gap and get a share of that segment.

    Very good review, thanks. Separately, can you please list the name of some companies with full-size (100%) keyboards, wireless (both 2.4 & bluetooth), hot-swap, south-facing leds, QMK/VIA (ideally) within perhaps CAD$500 range. Thanks in advance.

    A podcast could be awesome. Hearing from you and the other big names in keeb would be a great tool to navigate this weird keyboard era.
