Out of 150,000 readers, only 54 make this blog possible. Will you be one of them?
182 keys… But why?!
Anyway, the FU!Keyboard (which stands for Functionally Ultimate Keyboard, also abbreviated as FUK) is a hotswappable 26x7 ortholinear behemoth of a keyboard with OLED display, 4 independent rotary encoders and addressable RGB per-key illumination.
FUK sports the memory-rich Atmel AT90USB1286 MCU for the native QMK and VIA(L) support (and with that many keys you are gonna need a whole lotta memory for a whole lotta macros, extra keystrokes and all sorts of stuff).
