Have been using the UT22 with the Taipo layout for a while now and am very happy with it. (Nowhere near my usual speeds yet, but very usable for recreational purposes!)

The case is Bubbleology’s own closed-source design, which he kindly allowed me to get printed.

The firmware I’m using can be found here. :)

    Do you prefer taipo to traditional layouts? I’m contemplating trying it sometime

      I don’t think i prefer one over the other (yet), Taipo is much more cumbersome for me still. But I really enjoy the different approach and what it gives us in terms of keymap optimization: Effectively removes considerations of rolls, SFBs, and alternation almost completetly!

        Yeah it seems interesting in that way for sure. I may give it a go once I get my choc board put together. I think that many combos would get quite tiring on mx switches

          Yea, i’m also using light chocs here (pinks, which are 25g). Maybe i could even spring-swap them to 15g.

            Aren’t the Pink switches the recolored Light Blue, previously called gChoc, and all three linear, 20g? The Purpz (Purple) are linear, 25g - if I am not mistaken; there are several conflicting infos around

              Yeah, tbqh I’m also never entirely sure with pinks, light blues and purpz :D

              At one point in time, someone also sold manually spring-swapped pinks, so maybe the 20g info is from that batch? Not entirely sure though…

            I plan on ordering sunsets, so I think it may still be quite rough lol. But I’m getting pro pinks and Robin’s to try out to see if they would suit me better
