Can someone explain why this would be even slightly useful to anyone?

How does one type without a and z?

[–] [email protected] 10 points 1 month ago

this is a fancy mechanical keyboard and can be programmed. The missing keys are typed using key combinations.

In general I love the reprogrammability of mech keyboards, but this one is fucking weird ngl

The left Shift is A, and Caps Lock is Z.

To get those keys to function as Shift/Caps you would need to hold down the Fn key (bottom right).

I’m all for minimalist keyboards, but this shit is a bit too ridiculous.

it is possible if you get enough time to think of every word, you just need to to find synonims so you don't write specific letters, often needing to switch both words/speech style

(it's very difficult though, I've been writing this comment for 5 to 10 minutes)

You cn totlly get by without them

Definitely unneeded. The ending letter of the series of letters we employ to form words is especially useless, but to be honest the first is mostly superfluous too
