This is a crime against… well yourself I guess. Guard! Seize them!
Is there a reason the Q and V are at the end?
They don’t use those keys as often so it makes more sense ergonomically to put them at the end.
Remembered to take a pic of the layout halfway through:
Nice and toasty:
Nice and toasty?? Oh was it to dry them up well after washing?
Yes, the oven has a drying option, it’s normally used for drying herbs and stuff but works well to get rid of the excess moisture after washing as well.
Valve makes oven racks?
Wait what does baking/dehydrating them do? I cleaned mine a month ago but didn’t know that was some kind of step.
My key cap cleaning process is an ultrasonic cleaner with a little dish soap, then if I want to speed up the drying process they get thrown in a dehydrator at 140° F (60° C). Otherwise air drying on a towel is perfectly fine if time isn’t an issue.

Great keyboard! I have broken my esc key twice now though.
Are you me from the future? I just opened Lemmy for the day after finally cleaning mine
I picked up a nice mechanical keyboard at the goodwill. Two keys were sticky. I kept meaning to clean them, but typing on them and pulling up on the key to unstick it a few hundred times seems to have fixed the problem.
I am not this organized; instead I lift off a few keys randomly now and then and brush off the gunk.
I keep missing the number pad
This is chill to do once in a while! I like it.
Nice. I need to clean both of my daily drivers. The one at home i haven’t cleaned in a few months. The white keys hide nothing. My work one has been almost two years. I’m good about dusting it, but I need to thoroughly clean it like this.
I really need to clean mine soon…
