So far so good. I went with a logitech 10 keyless style since it was only $39.99 on sale. I don't know what kind of switches this thing uses but it has pbt keycaps, I think? Anyway here it is on amazon. Feels good to finally have a new kb where I don't have to struggle pushing down the p key.

Hipyo tech makes good content if you're looking for ideas: https://youtu.be/GaeIEKilzVA

You can mod your own keyboard. Or if you want to do something new then you can look at other layouts. Look at my post history, I've made a couple of custom layout compact keyboards.

If you really want to get your hands dirty then you can look at making a handwired custom keyboard or macropad from scratch: https://www.youtube.com/UCsjCKly4KtkvVyDjG_XkzEA

I don't think Ducky supports QMK, but if you have a QMK/VIAL compatible keyboard then you can do all sorts of interesting custom key assignments.

I guess I was also pointing at like...key switch types. If there has been any uhh I guess "improvement" is the word word over the cherry type switches

Yeah there are loads of options now.. Even that link is old and there are even more types. I'm using Gateron switches myself. There are low profile mechanical switches as well.

There is also plenty of variety in keycaps.
