Kinesis Advantage with brown switches. Some of the switches are starting to double input, and sometimes a modifier key gets stuck. Can't complain though, it's about to turn 18 years old soon.

Signal is one example. Their values are simply not compatible with what the Chinese government wants (local data storage, key access, etc.). Instead of complying and putting their users' privacy at risk, they accepted the ban. Google,
