I don’t think Drop has had a great reputation in the community as of late anyway. But it will be interesting to see what happens with the more obscure items that Drop regularly stocks… I.e. OLKB orthos and other split and abnormal layout keyboards.

Im out of the loop, what happened?
in addition to @kukkurovaca’s comment, the transition from Massdrop to Drop also alienated a lot of people – they dropped (ha!) almost all of their niche communities (ultralight camping, EDC, quilting, etc.) as well as their original mission of coordinating group buys for those niche communities
They just put out a lot of mediocre products, mostly. Also they were hilariously rude to the creator of the MT3 profile (which is one of their signature accomplishments in the keyboard space)

Let’s make more money… MORE MONEY… MORE FUCKING MONEY…
Greed will destroy us
That is how business works, yes.
It shouldn’t!
How do you propose business should be run in a money centric cap at list society then?
Did Drop still own Geekhack? (In some ways Corsair acquiring Geehack would be the bigger story to me at least since Geekhack is one of the key places (especially excluding reddit) that interest checks and group buys are published.)
Sounds like, yes now Corsair owns Geekhack
