not only is that hard, it's hard to find a bluetooth keyboard that isn't laggy as heck and doesn't occasionally freeze for a second or five. Or just give up until you re-pair it.

Maybe one of the next 20 that I try...

I have always thought, since Digital Research GEM, that the "desktop" in GUIs should be your desk's top. We're nearly there...

Never had any issue like that with my full-size Apple Magic Keyboard. It Just Works™

This has been my experience, too. The full size Apple Magic Keyboard Works great with my MacBook Pro, no lag, no delays waking up, charge lasts weeks, plug it in with a lightning cable, and it charges while it works like as an USB HID keyboard, even works with my Raspberry Pi. The only challenge is that after about 5 years of daily use, a few of the keycaps are wearing down.

Bluetooth sucks for keyboards. Logitech has a proprietary wireless standard for their high end wireless keyboards and the difference is massive.
