Proposal: a Cohost keycap groupbuy. Eggbug color DSS or KAT with eggbug, intern secretary, etc. themed novelties. A chost key. And the numrow and numpad are blank or novelty-only.

@starboards collab smol PCB?

folks could go nuts with deskpads too

(Probably not enough keyboard perverts on here to hit MOQ, but it's a fun idea)

took me a while because we've been moving, but, cohost keycaps! i used the color scheme, gradient-ified, layed out ortholinear style, since that's one of my preferences. i love these colors. the keys are just some quick mock keycaps i made in inkscape for the purpose of getting this idea out and are directly inspired by XDA and DSA. the font is Gorton (Perfected, c/o Marcin Wichary), standard for a lot of Signature Plastics keycaps. (by no means does it need to be DSA)

i'm not quite satisfied with the novelties, though i definitely wanted a little UI, a little branding, and eggbug. the 2u eggbugbar isn't visible enough for me, but i like the idea. and i couldn't quite get our favorite intern secretary in. i didn't want to outright trace someone else's art, but i still could draw a simple one given some time.

this is just an idea, but it's out there for anyone who'd want to use or develop it! (i am way too busy and un-moneyed to run a group buy, as cool as that sounds)

ooooooh i like this! if i wasn't busy with other stuff i'd seriously consider attempting to run this - alas, i do not have the bandwidth atm :eggbug-pensive: if anyone does want to try flesh this out a bit though, feel free to reach out - i can help get in touch with some vendors

yepppp i'm a colemak-dh user and these wouldn't even work for me. but i can touch-type it well enough that it wouldn't matter too much. (it still gets confusing if we get out of touch-type mode and start looking at the keys)
