I'm weirdly ashamed to say I don't hate the new keyboard...

I'm just not a keyboard connoisseur, it seems.

I guess the way it feels is subjective — and I certainly have strong opinions about that.

The two class action lawsuits against Apple for the butterfly switches however is some objective proof that something has gone terribly wrong.

Filing class action lawsuits is not proof of legitimacy, for example https://www.keytlaw.com/blog/2010/07/apple-sued-because-ipad...

That was for the previous Butterfly design, the new one (on the Air and now most Pros) purports to solve the problems.

As far as I know, there is no new design. They just now stick a plastic film under the keys to stop dust getting in and destroying your entire machine.

Does it work?
