I’ve been looking to move on from membrane keyboards and go mechanical, but no matter where I look literally every mech has some form of obnoxious RGB lighting on it. Are there any that just… don’t have it?

I’ve never really understood why people specifically avoid buying products with RGB lighting. You can usually just set it to a color you like, or simply turn them off. Instead people don’t buy the thing they want because of the “obnoxious RGB”. Imo it’s like not wanting to buy a nice speaker because when you tried it at the store the volume was too high or you didn’t like the sample track it played.
I can get not wanting to pay for a feature you actively dislike
Is that software available for every platform? Whenever I hear Gamer™ features, I assume that the crap customization software for Windows only. I like my mouse, but I can only customize the layout in Windows.
OpenRGB has support for a ton of devices; just make sure the keyboard is supported before buying it.
Because you’re paying for a gimmick instead of quality, and you don’t wanna support products that dont do that, and in capitalism that’s the only way to vote for what products get created.
Yeah they are really helpful at night when it’s dark. Mine is just set to a solid amber color.
What sold me on RGB was when I learned that you can do more with it than just solid colors and rainbow vomit. You can actually use the lights as pixels, and display crude images that are actually visible if you use use enough lights and squint your eyes a bit.
When I first found out about that, I went from anti-RGB to RGB all the things in my latest build. RGB motherboard, RGB RAM, RGB AIO, RGB fans, RGB keyboard and mouse, RGB cables… Anything to increase the “pixel” count for a clearer image. I wanted to buy even more but then I ran out of RGB ports on the motherboard.
Because avoiding more ewaste is a GOOD thing.
If the only feature a product has that you don’t like is the RGB, then what makes it e-waste?
Its not complex. More electronics=more ewaste. I understand that lots of people on the internet feel compelled to attack anyone who disagrees but seriously, just accept that we don’t want the stupid LEDs. Or don’t. I’m blocking you either way.
Good, now I don’t have to see your bitching. Sorry for
disagreeingattacking you.
