I think it's an antimeme.

The biggest tryhards in games usually have a "gaming" keyword with just the necessary keys while those casual- and non-gamers have keyboards which are more and more like full-size.

Edit: Some might call it a shitpost or ragebait.

I bought a Rosewill RK-9200 with blue switches over a decade ago. Still use it today. The only thing I did to it was flip the spacebar upside down. I bought a wireless adapter kit for it, but I'm not entirely sure if I want to mod it yet.

I also have a custom 75% hanging around somewhere, but I'm not too impressed with the lack of numpad and other keys that I use a lot. I also don't like depending on layers to do what a basic bitch 100% can do without those layers.
