     also hot take maybe but if you're making a keyboard with the microcontroller soldered directly to the pcb (as opposed to a pro micro type thing) and your choice of micro is an rp2040 then i will assume u have no idea what you're doing.

     yeah man sure absolutely 16 megs of external flash and a dual core 133mhz microcontroller that's totally a reasonable component choice for monitoring a key matrix

     this toot brought to u by a github thread in which an author says things such as "why would i add ground pours what's the point of that?" and "4 layers doesn't really help with the routing that much so i won't do it" in response to an issue in which putting your phone next to the keyboard sometimes causes it to stop working

     i should get in on this mechanical keyboard thing. they seem to sell for a lot of money, and many of the designs are quite bad in terms of the electronics
