He is looking for a replacement but is really addicted to the macro keys on the left. Anyone have a non Keychron rec? (I am already sending him all the Keychron keebs that offer similar layouts)

Thanks/Cheers!

Im not sure i want to recommend something with OEM software and soldered switches because then he is right back to the same situation

Yeah, just a tough ask all around, though hotswap at least is moving into the gamer space.

Monsgeek M5 has 108 keys, so you’ve got an extra four to play with, but you’ll probably find the best QMK fit somewhere in that batch of Keychrons.
