I’ve been looking to move on from membrane keyboards and go mechanical, but no matter where I look literally every mech has some form of obnoxious RGB lighting on it. Are there any that just… don’t have it?

The RGB inevitably resets itself and turns back on. Some of them are easy to turn off. Others require software (malware) you have to explicitly install to turn off the RGB.
My desktop has a lovely feature where if I turn it off the RGB turns BACK ON. And it turns out my case is just the right angle for the RGB to shine into my face when I’m in bed.
So yes I will pay more money to not get RGB.
Any decent keyboard saves the rgb profile on the keyboard itself. My ducky, nuphy and any keychrons I’ve used never reset their rgb or macro settings.
My Keychrons do. They really don’t like being connected to my dock or something and everyone once in a while they’ll randomly reset themselves. The keychron just lets me hit the backlight down key, but if I’ve replaced their shitty ass factory keycaps with other ones then I don’t know what that key combo is.
My keyboard at home has dip switches so I can just turn off the lights from there, and they will never turn back on. That is how it should be done, not software garbage.
That’s unfortunate. A few of my co workers have keychrons and they disabled/set their back lights to a static colour and they’ve never had issues with it resetting.
My ducky keyboard has DIP switches and it’s nice to be able to swap what I want from there.
