i've had mixed results with razer. a blackwidow hyperspeed i got a few years ago broke recently, but a huntsman v2 i've had for over 5 years works well. i think at least their optical stuff is good. also, i think there have been a lot of issues with the blackwidow v4, but that supposedly has been resolved

i love my razer deathstalker v2 pro tkl with red switches. for gaming it's amazing, for typing, it's ok. better than my normal huntsman keyboard with red switches. it's also optical, which is a must for me in terms of reliability. sick of having double typing problems with non optical keyboards

Razer Naga Trinity (wireless,mouse) and Razer Huntsman V2 (keyboard) what I’ve been using for a few years. Before that had a standard Razer Naga and the Razer Blackwidow keyboard. Razer key is on the price side (can often find decent deals on Amazon and other 3rd party vendors) but I’ve been gaming with Razer peripherals for like 20 years and never had any issues with anything, other than wear and tear.

Sorry for the late ass reply, reddit has been buggy as hell for me lately, I didn't get the notification and only saw it now lmao. Thanks for the recommendation man, that keyboard is actually perfect for me, I just ordered one on amazon for 84 euro which is way less than I thought I would be spending for what I wanted. Thanks again bro.

I had a huntsman mini v3 and before that I had the full size huntsman. I use it for gaming and software development. I have the ghost case and Geon Raw switches with the double shot pbt wooting keycaps

So I switched from Windows11 to linux. I had a razer huntsman with optical switches and it was ok in windows. It was very loud and the dial was always flaky. Even using open razer I wouldn’t recommend any razer stuff in linux. You can change some of the RGB stuff but changing anything meaningful doesn’t work. I have a 65% keychron HE keyboard now and it works perfectly in linux. You can set the RGB stuff but you can set actuation points or change what keys do what. And it does that using a web app so nothing needs installing. Works with bluetooth, wired or using the included wifi dongle.

completely forgot about that lmao. well in that case I would recommend OP get another decently built keyboard for typing and daily use, and use the huntsman for gaming.
