thinkpad keyboards!

i generally love the low profile scissor switch keyboards (i.e. laptop keyboards and similar), but most laptop keyboards also have atrocious layouts, while thinkpad ones are actually well thought through

i even used to use a desktop variant of it for a while (trackpoint keyboard ii, tho the feel is significantly worse than the ones they put in laptops - still identical layout tho), but when it broke got a logitech mx keys s

this one is fine, buuuut it has some quirks:

• i bought iso version instead of ansi (sort of by accident), so it has short lshift and a second \ on the left that i never use + \ on the right where I'd normally press enter - annoying
• print screen is not print screen! it's ctrl+shift+s. Or super+shift+s? one of those, whatever is the snipping tool in windows. I had to use solaar to remap it back to print screen on linux. Same goes for mute mic key. IDK why that one is like this, but it did nothing ootb and I similarly had to use solaar to fix it. And solaar is a buggy mess and I hate the fact I have to use hacks like this at all
• it has mute audio as F11, volume- as F12 as volume+ as a standalone key. And it has no FnLock indication anywhere. So often I'd hit volume+, then oops, let's reduce it - and open inspector in browser because it's in the wrong mode and there's no indication anywhere

so - yeah no, not quite my favorite. Thinkpad keyboards it is
