I had exactly the same issue! Ended up building a cheapino https://github.com/tompi/cheapino

The ones in the picture are rated for 32A which is way more than the typical 15A or 20A circuit

http://site.com isn't a valid host name, DNS won't resolve it. DNS does not understand protocol, it's taking your whole query as the hostname

Plenty of clones on AliExpress now eg

Very cool, thanks. How did you find the adjustment to Miryoku? I'm planning on trying that layout on my Cheapino

Looks great! What controllers are those and what layout are you using?

Yeah its a great keyboard at a great price point. none of the frills that are essentially pointless to me, but does what it does very well.

Okay I finally gave in and ordered the pcb from JLPCB and the parts from AliExpress to build my own Cheapino. Will post when it's ready!

I think there's definitely an element of bling, but there is practical utility as well. I spend 8h+ at the computer, I want it to be as comfortable as possible. Btw, if you think this keyboard has too few keys, check out the steno keyboard, used in courts all over so they can keep up with the speed of speaking: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stenotype

I felt the same way but I have been using an ergodox for a while, so I already don't have a numpad which I didn't miss. I recently modified my ergodox firmware to map only 44 keys and removed the rest, similar to this layout. It is an interesting concept and I can appreciate how little I have to move my hands now. I don't miss the number row or function row, those were easy enough to get used to, but some of the missing symbols are harder to get used to. I want to try a few more changes before I decide if I like the smaller keyboards better or just want the standard keys back
