I think you’re talking about Apple’s butterfly keyboards which were only around for 3-4 years of the last decade you’re talking about. Apple’s keyboards have been great for 5+ years now.


Agreed. Only issue is that they wear down really fast. Your fingers sand them down at a mindblowing pace, and soon enough all of them are smooth, with most used keys having shiny blemishes on them


Yeah, the last few machines that I've owned have been from Apple and I've noticed that too.

It's a kind of confusing choice on their part to use cheaper plastic that does this so fast.


you’re smoothing your fingers wrong


I assumed that was grease.


... do you moisturise your hands? Because "sandpaper" shouldn't describe your fingertips
