I've never had a mechanical keyboard before. I'm looking for a full-size backlit board with Browns or Clears (or -alikes). The Corsair K95 is well-recommended outside this thread and I like the macro keys, but it appears to have nonstandard key sizes, and I don't want to have to get a second keyboard if the customization bug hits me.

The WASD boards don't seem to have backlighting; the MK Fission seems OK but people complain about keys sticking and I'd ideally prefer RGB to white backlighting. It seems like the board I want is basically the most common, generic newbie board, but looking around, there are small differences that don't mean anything to me as a newcomer. What boards should I be focusing on?

The F108 looks pretty nice. That's definitely on the short list now, thank you!

Noted! Why Amazon, specifically, though?

(Also if you've got any other recommendations I'm all ears)

If you have an issue with your keyboard and go to Keychron, they will essentially say "first of all, go gently caress yourself, you're not entitled to a working keyboard, and second, if you bother us again about this, we'll show up at your house and shove the keyboard up your rear end." If you bought it from Amazon, though, Amazon will just, y'know, replace it.
