They say worst but it clearly isn't a membrane.

The IBM model M is a membrane keyboard! Not to mention other delights like Acer semi-mechanicals, Mitsumi KPR, and cantech!

Also, there are some truly awful mechanical keyboards out there like anything with Keytronic F&F.

I did like the concept but the pacing of the video is so very slow and boring. It's presented like a high school essay in front of the projector and I had to skip through to be able to finish it. I mostly watch longform content but this was just hard to get through

Great idea, now we just have to wait for the world to adopt Toki pona and we will be communicating at lightning speed

Nice, that looks interesting! What's LLLTW, is it that alphabet?

Also, fascinating, I had only read about toki pona before, your message took me like 20 minutes to translate with https://nimi.li/

Thank you for the link to Toki pona, it looks beautiful. For a short second I thought you were talking about Ithkuil the only language I know attempting brevity.

Yeah it's mentioned in the video and rightly dismissed as just being a bunch of standard keyboards with stickers on. It's not "a keyboard".
