If you haven't been tainted by the mechanical keyboard hobby, be aware.
I started with a TKL with Outemu blue switches just to see what the hype was about, then moved to Anne Pro 2 with Gat browns.
Ortholinear made sense so I got an XD75 followed my a Planck after getting curious about 40% boards.
Now I make my own from printed PCBs and soldering, custom programmable firmware, and my own custom key map.
I now use a split column staggered 34 key board with hand dyed keycaps and custom aftermarket switches.
I own 7 boards now and have plans for at least 2 more and a partial split for gaming.
I'm sincerely confused as to why you would want more than one keyboard. To me it sounds like owning more than one printer, but even less convenient. Can you explain it to me?
I got into it cause you can switch out the keys for custom keys. Plus I really like specific aesthetics so I have a pink keyboard and one in lavender where the keys look like sweet tarts candy.
I also have a keyboard specifically for my ipad.
