I’ve had two days in a row where I got to nerd out over stuff with people. Let’s get some of that going for everyone else.

From a quick look, it seems like their 'lekker' switches are hall effect switches. In essence they can be fully analog.

It's definitely a really cool and interesting development for switches, but I still personally find them to be a bit gimmicky in concept.

I think in the end of the day it's how they feel really. If Awoo likes them than awesome.

I never see anyone talk about my favorite MX style switch and think that anyone who likes Pandas or U4Ts should at least check them out at the very least(EG Oreo).

Oh for sure, I'm sure hall effect switches feel much different than regular linears, and more options is always a good thing in this space.

I just got into tactiles recently when I finally put in my Magic Girl SP-Stars and I really enjoy them. I'll definitely check out the EG Oreos when I get the chance to.
