The idea with Petrichor was always to keep it simple. Simple mounting, implemented well. Simple design, but enough to retain its own identity. No external weight, but the board still has weight to it. Every feature serves a purpose.
There isn’t too much of a story to tell for this board, but this to me is everything I need and want in a keyboard, and I’ve been using a Petrichor as my daily driver since 2020.
