And that's why we use floating key design boards, not an issue for me

I've had that too but either I've grown out of it or my efforts to adjust my habits have kept me from getting flare ups.

 

It seems what helps (at least for me) is avoiding using soap too often.  Also things with lots of scents of them such as again soaps with a very strong scent.  I'm not saying never wash areas you get eczema with soap but minimize the frequency you do so within reason of course.  That may help.

There's amiibo for sooo many things.  I only have the Zelda amiibo and the Wolf Link/Midna amiibo that came with the HD Twilight Princess game but they're pretty cool.  I want to get the normal Link amiibo and a few others like one of the Peach amiibo.  The one where she has a decent looking dress not the bland looking one where it's like a solid block.

Reducing how often you use soap helps in my experience.  Not never using it of course.  Just using it less often when possible to avoid it.  Like using gloves when cleaning so you don't have to wash your hands after.. Also avoiding heavily scented things helps too I've been told.

What does floating key mean in terms of a keyboard?

It means there's no top shell, the key switches themselves are exposed

Ohhhh!  So you have keycaps on it but there's nothing directly under them.  Is there any benefit to that design besides being easy to clean?

imo it looks a lot nicer and LEDs spread out their light a lot more, especially with the slightly reflective metal backplate

Cool.  What brand is your keyboard? 

 

What kind of switches does it use?
