After 5 years of using a blank keyboard, I don't recommend it

pcgamer.com:

Sometime around 2017, I became disenchanted with the glowing Corsair and Logitech gaming keyboards I'd been using. They're good, but everyone has one. I wanted something niche: an apparatus unknown to generic typists, but inconspicuous enough not to reveal my snobbishness for what it is. 

My search ended with the Das Keyboard Ultimate, a $169 black mechanical keyboard with completely blank keycaps. There's no «QWERTY,» no «WASD,» no numbers or symbols. All of its keys are featureless cubes. I chose the Ultimate for two main reasons:

1. It looks cool. The Das Keyboard Ultimate is the opposite of the typical RGB light show. It's a black hole in your desk that says to passers-by: «This computer is not for you, because you are not of the midnight realm.» Few keyboards look cooler.

2. I thought I could become a better touch typist by denying myself labels to glance at. And if my typing didn't improve, I could still claim that I bought the Das Keyboard Ultimate as a training tool, allowing me to own a novelty keyboard without admitting that its primary purpose was to be noticed.

I also liked the quality of the Das Keyboard 4 build: It's a sturdy slab with a big metal volume knob that clicks pleasantly when rotated. I recommend Das Keyboard's collection (the rest of which features normal keycaps), but after five years of using the Ultimate, I have finally retired it in favor of the Dygma Raise, a split ergonomic keyboard that emits red, green, and blue light through translucent key labels like the gaming keyboards I once left behind. 

I miss the subtler aloofness of my Ultimate and its blank keycaps, but it probably won't ever be my main keyboard again. As I imagine you've guessed, there are advantages to having little numbers
