Hi guys! Obviously some of us have been going through multiple keyboard replacements due to this keyboard design flaw. I've went through 4 repairs which i've been told next service will be a replacement. My 4th keyboard has been going through some hurdles which some keys again would get stuck which required me to use an air can to fix it. The keyboard now has a permanent stickiness to it which will most likely require a replacement since it double clicks a lot and the air can doesn't help anymore.

I have the 2017 model, therefor isn't compatible with the 2019 keyboard tweaked edition. Well, what a shame! Rumors have it that apple will dump the keyboard the design and will go back to the scissor mechanism which is much more reliable.

Will apple replace my computer with the new one when it comes out when I go bring it to service? I'm honestly sick of them replacing my keyboard and being without a computer for a week at a time when I need it. I am just so sick of this keyboard! I actually use an external keyboard that was from my 2010 imac and I use an adapter for it -- which looks ridiculous in public. Ugh I hate the butterfly keyboard.
