@El_Rocha
It was already ridiculous an hour ago when it was priced at 16€ (compared to $12 everywhere else).
I want to support the app but 23€ in our economy is simply ludicrous.

Help needed with my first build! (kbin.social)

Hey guys, looking for advice on my first build. I'm looking forward to building a Dactyl Manuform but I've run into some hiccups that I seek your advice on. I apologize in advance if my English is a bit wonky.

Wireless? I thought about going wireless and ordering a pair of nice!nano controllers. I assume it will be a bit easier to assemble (less components) and I can switch between devices easily, but I've heard it's a bit harder to troubleshoot. Is this a good idea or should I go wired for a first build? How do I go about connecting the battery and which batteries should I look into?
How to solder? Most of the Dactyl tutorials and guides I've come across assume some level of soldering experience and skip over some steps - I have none whatsoever but I'm a very willing self-learner. What are some good resources to learn how to do this? I'm talking basic stuff including things like where all the components go and which connect to which.
Compatible switches? I've looked into tactile switches and loved the sound (or lack of) Gazzew Boba U4 Black Silent. Would these be compatible and a good alternative to standard cherry mx switches?

Thanks in advance for your help!

@Cheradenine that just makes me want to do it harder, tbh.

I sent a GDPR data request to reddit days ago but reddit says it can take "up to 30 days" and I have yet to receive my download link. The API is shutting down soon and I really just want to archive my personal data before I purge the account. Is there an easy way to do this?

I just search for the server I'm looking for in https://kbin.social/magazines and its communities pop up in the results for me.

I understand and 100% support your move but I just wish the old posts were archived. I was looking forward to building my own keyboard and had some reddit links saved that would be very helpful. The situation just sucks all around especially for the smaller niche communities.

Why did you choose your instance? in c/asklemmy@lemmy.ml

I've created accounts on all of those and kbin is by far my favorite. Lemmy.world has some sorting issue where all the "hot" posts are two days old. And the others are just overzealous in their moderation or push weird political takes on non-political communities and I'm not really fond of that.
