Welcome to the Unpopular Opinion community!


How voting works:

Vote the opposite of the norm.


If you agree that the opinion is unpopular give it an arrow up. If it's something that's widely accepted, give it an arrow down.



Guidelines:

Tag your post, if possible (not required)


  • If your post is a "General" unpopular opinion, start the subject with [GENERAL].
  • If it is a Lemmy-specific unpopular opinion, start it with [LEMMY].


Rules:

1. NO POLITICS


Politics is everywhere. Let's make this about [general] and [lemmy] - specific topics, and keep politics out of it.


2. Be civil.


Disagreements happen, but that doesn’t provide the right to personally attack others. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Please also refrain from gatekeeping others' opinions.


3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.


Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.


4. Shitposts and memes are allowed but...


Only until they prove to be a problem. They can and will be removed at moderator discretion.


5. No trolling.


This shouldn't need an explanation. If your post or comment is made just to get a rise with no real value, it will be removed. You do this too often, you will get a vacation to touch grass, away from this community for 1 or more days. Repeat offenses will result in a perma-ban.



Instance-wide rules always apply. https://legal.lemmy.world/tos/

Yea, I would like to know their reasoning as well. Or what laptop they're using because I haven't found one I like. I can't type for shit on any laptop keyboard I've used in the last like 15 years. I have one cheapo one that I bought for a tablet that is at least tolerable because the mechanism in the keys gives a little feedback but for most of them there's just nothing to tell where your fingers are at "tactilely". I think ThinkPads are supposed to be better but haven't tried one.

Im using an Asus Tuf F15 gaming laptop, personally i actually think its the worst laptop ive ever used though.

i tend to try and smash the keys all the way down, also to me it feels wierd having to push it all down. and usually the noise is either: annoying, irritating, loud, all of the above. the only keyboard where i can actually withstand the sound without almost popping my eardrums are: you guessed it, laptop keyboards.

I just bought a mechanical keyboard with silent switches because I too love smashing the keys without the clickety-clackety of other switches.
