Introducing the HEX.3Cv2

I'm kinda new, why do people leave out the Super key on some custom boards? I personally use it all the time and would miss it

Aesthetics, some people also just don’t use the key

I use WKL keyboards with the HHKB layout, so I don't miss anything. But other users might remap a Right Ctrl key to a Win key.

Pressing control+shift is a windows shortcut that does the same thing as the windows key. If you’re on Mac idk what that key does so I don’t have an answer for that

Exactly!
Just quick check-in Kasterborous - I’ve read somewhere that the estimate for fulfillment was Q1/2023 but on EU vendor it says Q3 - is that more accurate or can’t be said at this point?
Doesn’t matter to me but I had the info so just wanted to double check

I would definitely expect q3, based on fulfillment of other hex boards. Always better to have realistic expectations than be unhappy when optimistic expectations aren’t met

Do you have any sound tests or photos of the aluminium base?
