So my question is; have these keyboard improved since then and are the macro keys easier to program now in a way that makes sense for programmers and not just for gamers? Btw, do you recommend MX Red ...

I’ve tested more than 100 keyboards, and this one’s the perfect fit for a crowded workspace.

Anyone who has ever used a keyboard with these practical controls will be reluctant to do without them. They not only make media control easier, but also enhance workflow and add everyday convenience.
