I joined a couple of discord channels and they're basically saying move to ANSI layout to get more choice. What are people's views? I used to use a mac kb that had a US layout...
 
G513 carbon, got it on sale at the curry house for £100 quite a while back. One of the best keyboards i've used, really nice switches and no "clacky" sound that you get with a lot of mech keyboards.

I switched from UK ISO to ANSI when I got my mechanical keyboard. I set it in UK layout in Windows and it hasn't bothered me at all. I touch type anyway, so it doesn't matter to me that the markings on a few keys are inaccurate. Apart from that, it's basically just a matter of getting used to the slightly different position of the return key and the # key.

I actually find I prefer the US style return key, since it is more comfortable to press with my little finger from the home row than the UK one, which needs you to stretch a little bit further. If you use the backslash key a lot that might be an issue unless you have it in US layout (but then the £ is harder to produce).

I will probably stick to ANSI layout for preference now, given a choice that is otherwise equal.
 
I just got a Keychron K3 (The newest slimline model from KeyChron).
My first mechanical keyboard. Very different to the Apple one I've been using to date. I like it.. I think. My main concern is that colleagues will find it too noisy when typing etc. on Zoom calls. I really like the clicky sound personally though :)

If anyone is thinking of getting one and has any questions (or pics), happy to try and answer them . I went for red mechanical Gaterons. I would say it's pretty loud so certainly glad I didn't go for anything more clicky!
 
Ducky One2 TKL with silent reds. Have the ONe2Mini but really needed the function keys and love the TKL one now, although I still use the mini and it's great when I don't need the function keys.
 
Ducky One 2 TKL Pure white with Cherry MX Brown's for Home
Mizar MZ60 Luna Hot swap in white with Gateron Yellow's for Work
 
Logitech G815 is the perfect balance for me. Quality materials, great layout, wired and matches other Logitech G stuff I have (G935 and G Wireless Pro Mouse)

I fancy G915 TKL as it would look better with no wires, but I'm crap at keeping an eye on my charge levels
