ZSA Voyager with Nocturnal switches (infosec.pub)

The Nocturnal Ambient switches are insanely quiet. I am typing at normal speed now that I moved the keys up one row so that it matches my Planck. A much more familiar layout, a much softer approach to typing, I still miss the tactile bump feedback, which is what makes typing satisfying, but this has been an incredible experience so far. So smooth, so soft, and just so sleek and ergonomic.

Now that I've completed my article, I find myself trying to find things to type and write about. It just feels so good to write this way.

Why are there some keycaps missing?

I moved everything a row up so I didn't want my palm to accidentally hit anything. I'm not using the bottom row.

I have the same keyboard and chose the Kailh choc sunset switches. I love the tactile feeling and they’re not overly loud, although clearly audible.

Gotta try them then! I'm in love with the thock-ness of my MX Boba U4 on the Planck. I heard that it's hard to get that tactile sense with chocs.

It is! I‘ve tried the brown chocs as well, but they felt really mushy. Now I love my voyager. It has basically everything I would have wanted from a custom keyboard.

Gah. So tempting. All this tariff stuff is making me make excuses to buy all the things now and hide in a cave.
