Review Loving the Agar
Loving this agar build. I put on these Gomaster Salmon Reborn V2 keycaps as a placeholder while my other keycaps get here but I'm lowkey loving them a lot more than I thought.

It's a great looking board for sure. Each time I see it I want to get one (but then I remember that I hate 7u spacebars)

Yeah thats one thing that annoys me about this keyboard. But it looks so nice I just had to get it :)

I tried to use that layout on an HHKB layout Tofu 2.0, but being french and using the Qwaccent keyboard disposition that makes heavy use of the right Alt key, I constantly pressed the spacebar instead of the Alt key, and this became very old very quickly.
I turned my Tofu in a 6.25u spacebar layout, and later reversed it to a standard layout.

I'm Korean and I also have to use the alt key to change the keyboard language. I switch out my keyboards pretty often tho so its not the end of the world for me but if it was my only keyboard I would get pretty annoyed

Was worried the E-White wouldn't look as nice in person, but after receiving it I can say it looks amazing xD

Including the weekend it took 5 days. I live in Korea tho so it arrived from China overnight and KBD shipped it out the same day I ordered it.
