Hi, I’m Fyn. Sound engineer in Portland, OR. Into retro computing (mostly 80s home computers), mechanical keyboards, and climbing. I’ve been around the fediverse a while now (Mastodon - @fyn@mstdn.party) and wanted a home on the forum side of things. Nice to meet you all, and happy to answer any questions.


Hey Fyn, I’m from Oregon too. From what I’ve seen lurking on Lemmy there are quite a few Oregonians posting here.
I’ve also been into mechanical keyboards. I’ve soldered together a few split ortholinear keyboards from PCB kits with micro controllers.
That was years ago now, but my main keyboard is still one of those. I never even put a case on it or anything. On the bottom it’s just 2 bare PCBs with a scrap piece of wood in between to tent them. On the top it’s Gateron yellow switches and a variety of different keycaps.
