@lucifargundam , what's up with your keyboard?
It's a custom-built mechanical keyboard I assembled and programmed myself. You can buy parts to assemble your own mechanical keyboard in many places such as ebay/amazon, as well places like

https://www.maxkeyboard.com/
and many other forums/websites.
The keyboard depicted is a %60 format(less keys than what you would normally find, which would likely be 100-120% formats). The keycaps are clear without any letters/markings and I added blue LED's to the clear Gateron switches. The PCB itself is highly customizable and has RGB underneath, capable of various LED modes and displays. I also added a couple of 'artesian' keycaps (the red lotus 'Esc' and 'Return' caps, and the flaked and g-prism).
Overall, this is my preferred aesthetic layout and I'm satisfied with it for the moment(this is my second board, by the way). My first board that I had assembled helped me hone skills I used to get my first full-IT job that ultimately allowed me to grow and explore other options later.
Projects like this are not only fun- but can potentially be very helpful in securing better work opportunities. Learning new things can be fun and also financially profitable.
@lucifargundam awesome, do you have a picture of it?
@arteteco
Looks nice for that type of keyboard :) nothing wrong with having different preferences! I don't think there's too much customization available for yours though :/
@lucifargundam yeah, it's very unfortunate... I tried many keyboards, I really wanted to have something nice with leds and work a bit on it, but couldn't find anything that suited me, I'm too used to this style of typing
@arteteco
Depending on how you type, there might still be remedies- did the ones you tried in the past have wrist rests?
@lucifargundam Rarely, but I enjoy them, feels better to type for long time
@arteteco
having a wrist wrest will help elevate your hands and make them more parallel to the keys, which may help with your finger reaching.

@lucifargundam I like very low run keys, I tried two mechanical keyboards but they were too high for me
Like, that's my keyboard!
