Where to buy keyboard stickers? (lemmy.ca)

I have another question about stickers. Where can I buy Tux stickers to cover the win and ⌘ logos on my keyboards?

I found some on eBay, but the seller's on holiday and eBay suspended my account twenty minutes after I created it (for some reason).

EDIT: Removed Reddit-era *nix slang

EBay did the same to me because I created my account with a VPN. Idk why they don't just stop you when you are creating the account but if you use a VPN that could be why.

Winshit logos? Is that the level we are on? They are shit because they gave the super key a new/different/iconic use?

Right..I hate ms as much as the next person but this is a new level of petty. If it bothers someone that much, buy a different keyboard

On a laptop, you may not have a choice of keyboards. Even if you have a mechanical desktop keyboard where you can switch out every individual key easily, you usually need to find appropriate keys that match the style/quality of the others.

Anywho, using "M$", "Winshit", etc. does read a little childish.

I don't post on this specific community much, so I'm still using the language I picked up from r/LinuxMasterRace. I'll try to be better.

As it happens, I only have laptops, otherwise I would have just grabbed some Cherry MX keycaps and been done with it.

Thank you. I know that you can buy replacement caps and spring mechanisms for (every?) laptop, but with specific prints? Not sure. But you could at least get sometime else.

There are a few options.

Etsy has a few available

Think penguin has one listed: https://thinkpenguin.com/gnu-linux/tux-super-key-keyboard-sticker

And system 76 seems (can't personally guarentee) to ship some ubuntu ones if you send them an envelope, paying shipping https://system76.com/merch/stickers

I haven't ordered from them myself but a quick search gave me this:

https://www.mechanicalkeyboards.co.id/products/detail/tux-abs-backlit-keycap-black

Replacement keycaps, not stickers, though
