I’ve used rocky Linux on a couple of boxes and it’s been very good to me though I’ve since rationalised everything to Debian for the sake of simplifying my setup.

Its fun. The main pain is source the parts in particular the PCBs and cases spending what your going for. Keycaps and switches are way easier.

Ah cest la vie. Finally gave me an excuse to build a couple of custom KBs to replace it.

Yeah I loved my one loads. Probably would still have it if it didn’t get crushed in a moving accident.
