I have a couple of escape keys that I use, but they are too hard and the feeling is not uniform enough to use for other keys really. I wouldn’t trust them for regular alphabet at all. Especially for keys that have more angle to them they end up having a lot more topography to them.
The stems also can’t take as much abuse unless you went ahead and filled the whole key in.
They should just stay mostly hidden as they are now. I was harassed 3 times while using kbin for my voting habits. When I brought it up to ernest, him and mostly everyone else defended it, even though at the time I was actively being annoyed by someone.
It’ll make less people vote in the long run and will scare people off.
Nothing worse than hopping on something I do for leisure to realize that thread I voted on a week ago has now come back to bite me in the ass because the OP decided to go on a crusade and harass everyone that downvoted them.
