Lensflare19357321dNever understood why some people are so into rgb/lit keyboards or mice.
I find it very annoying and always disable that crap.
Are you one of those devs who spend their whole day in a pitch black room so that you can’t see your keys? -
cuddlyogre1520321d@Lensflare After spending the entire day being exposed to fluorescent lights, it's nice to turn the lights off for a while.

devdiddydog1468321d@Lensflare I don't get why people have mechanical noisy-as-fuck keyboards either. I have a backlit MX keys keyboard and it's a dream to type on. I just wish there was a hack to keep the lights on all the time, because the soft glow is good.
