I recently got a Dierya 65% keyboard, and think it is rather thick.
Is this normal for a mechanical keyboard? Or is the Dierya exceptional high? Do you use a wrist rest? If so, is there anything special to look out for? Or will any wrist rest do?

According to a blog post my Keeb.io:
The post is citing a small study of only 13 participants, but I think it’s way more of value than any personal opinion from some random dude on the Internet (which includes me as well).
With that said. I’m a wrist rest person my self. I’ve been spending a lot of time at the computer, probably too much time at times. And I have used wrist rest exclusively for more than a decade with various mechanical keyboards.
I’m the person who uses a highly keyboard driven environment that mostly consist of text-based software. I don’t use the mouse a lot, so I always rest my hands on the keyboard with the fingers on the home row (asdfjkl;).
This works for me, but you should listen to your body and what it’s telling you. According to the article it doesn’t seem to exist some one good thing that works for everyone. Which is probably true for most things.
However. Stay away from those tilted keyboards. They’re rather popular because aesthetics. Which is stupid. Your keyboard should preferable have a negative tilt, or at least have no tilt at all.
