    As a person normally deeply critical of the Drop in-house keyboard lineup, this video was incredibly insightful and helped me understand how my own personal preferences developed.
    Before this video, I believed the Drop in-house lineup of boards were all deeply flawed due to their north facing LED switch orientation and 3-pin design. Currently, if a new board features either one of these, I personally consider it an instant dealbreaker.
    However, the main perceived faults of this board lie within serval basic assumptions that some enthusiasts make about the expression of the keyboard hobby. Let’s walk through this scenario, starting with the Drop Alt with stock Halo switches.
    The board may be problematic:
    -If you plan on regularly upgrading switches to 5-pin and own (or plan on owning) another board that requires the stability of the extra 2 pins.
    -If you purchase GMK or other similar Cherry profile keycaps-AND if you are irritated by the sound/feel of interference.
    Another consideration is the existence of switches that don’t seem to suffer from interference issues with Cherry profile regardless of LED orientation, such as the Holy Pandas, which can be considered a direct upgrade from the Halo Trues. Furthermore, as seen in the video, this board does not inhibit other enthusiast modifications such as lubing switches and tuning stabilizers.
    My personal experience may not represent everyone else’s, but incremental modding and upgrades were the KEY, to me appreciating this hobby. I started with small things like adding grease to stabilizers, to case foam, to lubing switches on hotswappable boards, to entire customs. My current favorite board is a custom I built from various parts. However, an argument can be made that my board was also built upon the past keyboards I owned, all of which most definitely would not pass the scrutiny tests of this community. My tastes, preferences, and appreciation for quality are a result of experiencing imperfection.
    I am increasingly unsettled by the community’s gatekeeping behavior surrounding the Drop keyboards, which are often gateway keyboards for thousands of people into this hobby.
    Returning to video, I think this remains a beautiful keyboard that is completely understandable once context is provided. It’s unilaterally an upgrade from that g*mer keyboard Josh was using before. I hope he enjoys his upgrade.

      I think drop's offerings are starting to show their age at the price point, moreover if you're coming from areas of the world that have access to cheaper keyboards (ie: east asia). They were relevant back then, but honestly I look at people criticizing drop's refusal to keep up with current community demands to be just... criticizing. Sometimes it does cross over to being gatekeeping, but their source of frustration js the same: Drop's refusal to keep up with current community demands. They do have the capital to design a better keyboard, or even improve on some things that the community asked for (better stabs) but they didn't do it. Although it *can* be a decent keyboard with incremental upgrades (I'm using an Idobao ID80, so I know that incremental upgrades is important because that keyboard is pretty bad, but it's the only choice at that price point). For how much it's priced at, they could have given better features out of the box. It's quite frustrating to see it because of how much influence they have on the beginner market since they're Drop, yet they don't make keyboards that offers a better feature set for beginners, but hey, preference.

      ​@@12345678946513 Thank you for the input, I agree with lots of the points you raised. However, "Drop's refusal to keep up with current community demands" is more complicated than the common belief that Drop doesn't care about its customers.
      Drop's lineup is comprised of many north facing LED oriented keyboards, which is a downside for enthusiasts who are more likely to use high end GMK and cherry sets on their keyboards. However, Drop sells numerous variants of their in-house Skylight series of shine-through north facing legend keycaps. I'm stereotyping when I say this, but gamers tend to like RGB, and RGB backlight shines best through shine through keycaps like the north facing Skylight series. I'm assuming their Skylight keycaps have a relatively high profit margin due to production scale, so there is some logic to keeping north facing LED keyboards and north facing shine through keycaps in their lineup. Also, Drop sells their Holy Pandas, which has no interference with Cherry profile. If you were to build the most costly configuration for a keyboard on Drop, using their most expensive keyboard, keycaps, and switches, it would be a completely functional, and dare I say, gratifying build.
      The target market audience for the Drop lineup might ultimately not be the same community that is most educated and passionate about optimizing enthusiast keyboards. This returns to my beliefs that this Drop makes gateway keyboards, bridging the gap between kitsch gamer keyboards and enthusiast boards. Their priority has probably always been the gamer over the enthusiast. That's why all these enthusiasts, who probably made the "community demands" you mention, are left unresponded to. We don't often see criticisms of the Razer Blackwidow for bad compatibility with GMK keycaps or bad stock stabilizers. However, the Drop stock stabs get far more attention. It may feel frustrating that we were so close to having an easily accessible, large-scale manufactured, decent looking, entry level enthusiast board, but if we look at it from the perspective of a gamer gearhead, the Drop board is far more reasonable a purchase.
      I currently don't have a defense for why Drop hasn't added two additional pins to the PCBs for 5pin support. I assume that, just like everything else, it comes down to the money involved in designing a new PCB and introducing it into the manufacturing line and supply chain. However, gamers are probably not flavor-of-the-week switch swappers, and probably will not lose sleep if they are forced to clip switches.
      Drop could make a wonderful hotswappable enthusiast keyboard, but their current plan appears to be working quite well, as they've sold tens of thousands of these imperfect keyboards. I do speculate that Drop may be producing a board for hobby enthusiasts, based on some of the decisions they made for the Carina, but we will have to wait and see.
      Once again, thank you for sharing! I also use the ID80! Far from perfect, but its a better fit for me than any of the Drop keyboards personally.

      I purchased this keyboard for testing switches and different lubes. I also wanted to learn how to do things properly before purchasing a soldering kit and investing lots of money into the hobby. As a starter board, I am extremely happy. I see what people are saying when it comes to some things, but the fact that the typing experience is such an improvement for me, these issues seem quite minor in retrospect.

    Solid video my dude! When you're working with budget options we all gotta realize how often we have to make compromises somewhere. North facing switches happen and in that case, if it is an issue then use something other than cherry profile keycaps! I personally would rather never use plate mount stabs again but unfortunately, all 3 of my boards have them lol
    I think it's all too easy in this community to be disappointed that I didn't spend +$800 to have a top-tier board with no objective flaws but the reality is that we should be able to be happy with even our GK61 builds. This is a hobby for a reason. I'm doing this to have fun and itch the scratch that I have for creating, not to impress elitist attitudes. The relevant keyboard creators generally do a great job at not spouting any elitism, something that forums aren't so great at doing. The man's drop alt looks fantastic!

    I am more of a gamer than anything else, and decided that I wanted to do some mods to my Drop ALT low profile. I lubed and filmed my Kailh Silver, added a KBD fans foam module and some EVA foam, lubed, clipped, and band-aid modded the PCB. I love this board now. I know that a lot of keyboard enthusiasts hate it for not being 5 pin, the expensive price, and integrated plate, but I love it (and I am not the type of guy that spends $600 on a keyboard).

    Technicality is the key to building this board and to correct its flaws. However, I believe that the stabs and the higher price tag is what's deterring potential customer/s from purchasing this keeb.
    I know that NK65 entry or alu, RAMA, KBDfans, etc. have similar or potentially lower offerings that many enthusiasts, snobs and newcomers to this hobby prefer. I've built this board with Holy Pandas (filmed and lubed with slight oil application to the springs), GMK red samurai (like yours) with no clearance issues, modded the stabs (OG stabs), added a sound dampening foam underneath to eradicate the hollow sound and this board shines.
    I know in the keyboard community having a flex build is what sets you apart from the rest and it's the same as any other hobby (I collect shoes and watches) so Yeah, I very well damn know! but to the budget conscious newbie who wants to explore the rabbit hole and not want to wait months to a year for a "hyped" group buy then this keyboard in my opinion is what I'd compare to as an Omega watch or a BMW car - functional, good looking, machining is top notch with added flare and pizazz yet effective as a daily driver.

    There are two band-aid mods! The one you show here, and another placing the cloth tape on the PCB where the sliders bottom-out. In conjunction with spacing washers to encourage bottoming-out of the stab sliders after clipping, the PCB band-aid mod can give stabs a very premium feel. Those same spacing washers can side-step the GMK / North-facing interference issue. Every vendor should stock them!

    We can include terms like baby shark and pewdiepie to really broaden the audience and then spice it up with some among us and Minecraft crossed with the hit new youtube sensation that is rust on the OTV server featuring twitch funny moments from jackscepticeye. I also have to mention music, asmr and markiplier that are all important terms here on youtube. Let us not forget of course the makeup and fashion community by referencing shane dawson and james charles. Now whilst this is COMPLETE GIBBERISH to most an algorithm is able to pick out the specific key terms in this post and promote it accordingly. So lets support the Kpop stans by mentioning bts and lofi hip hop. We can even talk about some other big channels like mrbeast and dantdm. For some reason in 2020 some of the most searched tags are game of thrones and avengers endgame... Let us of course not forget the most important things of the year like dunke peppa pig and roblox! Time for all the top current searches Among Us - online game, new song 2020, pop smoke and techno gamerz and tubbo smp!

  • @SanDukey
    @SanDukey 2 года назад +1

    question from a newbie: Why use thicker lube in the stabilizers? There are metal components in switches (springs, clickbars), so it can't be due to the materials used. Is it for sound dampening purposes, or does the thicker lube provide some form of support to the stabs?

    • @blue_panzer

      It's just to reduce as much rattle as possible generally the thicker the lube the better but you can over do it *GMMK pro*
