Too broad keyboard names

Some vendors, e.g. Razer, have a huge range of keyboards (many different keyboard families and different underlying key technology, e.g. pure mechanical vs. opto-mechanical).

Perhaps add several rows, one for each main type (whatever that means), for some vendors?

Open source hardware?

Hi,

the entry for the Input Club keyboard links to opensource, which is quite general (although its leading section only talks about software). Maybe the link should be, more specifically, to open-source hardware? —Gennaro Prota^•Talk 13:16, 16 May 2022 (UTC)

OS support

Should there be a column indicating whether the manufacture has native support for an operating system keyboard layout i.e. macOS, and/or Windows including keycaps for modifier keys and software? Notahashtag (talk) 06:34, 4 November 2023 (UTC)

Innaccurate title/article purpose

The vast majority of "keyboards" listed in the table are actually brands that manufacture multiple models of mechanical keyboards. These brands are judged and compared as mechanical keyboards; I doubt you could find a citation meeting Wikipedia's rigorous standards describing whether Logitech as a company has n-key rollover, and as for their keyboards, they have models with and without. Either all companies should be pruned from the list, which would remove most entries, or the article should be renamed to something like "List of mechanical keyboard manufacturers" and all of the few actual keyboards on the list should be removed.
