Alice style is my new favorite. All I want is a hotswap, mechanical, Alice board with dedicated F and tilde keys.

I love Alice boards, already have my eyes on several more "I need to make that" kits. Lol

Checkout the Feker Alice 80. Prebuilt, hotswap, comes with Gateron Yellow Pros (lubed), and is fairly cheap ($120-130 I think). Oh and it has bluetooth and wireless (via usb hub) if you are interested in that.

It is pretty muted, but there are easy videos to give it a thoccy sound, although it is pretty thoccy, just more muted due to the silicone in it. I prefer the muted because I use it mostly for work.

I got the Matcha caps for like $30 and it looks amazing with the white board. I seriously might buy another for home, I like it so much.

The Keychron Q10 is an Alice-style 75! I was in the same boat, wanting an Alice with function row, and discovered this board a couple of days ago. Looks like it came out about a month and a half ago, but I haven't seen anyone talking about it.

Oh man wish I had seen that before.

The only issues I have with it are the aluminum case (I prefer the sound of the plastic) and the fact that I can't get it in white.

There is also the price the the fact that I don't like any of the switches it comes with, but I have plenty lying around I could use.
