I wouldn't call myself the world expert on Sonix these days, haven't messed with it in over a year. I occasionally check up on the Sonix hacking discord and it looks like some people over there are still making progress, have rebased to master and such. I have been focusing on OpenRGB itself mostly and once the Sinowealth boards started coming out I kinda lost interest in keeping up with SonixQMK since it felt like the work we were doing was getting undone.
I did try to JTAG a Sinowealth keyboard but thus far have been unsuccessful in talking to the chip. I would at least like to dump its firmware.
Yea I still mod on the Sonix discord but its somewhat dead since the number of Sonix/Evision based keyboards has dropped to near 0 and Keychron started making actual QMK compatible boards.
Are you connected with Wendel at Level 1 Techs who are working to get a open RGB protocol supported by all the manufacturers?
Not in any official capacity, but I know about what he and Steve from GN are doing. Their project aims to get vendors to provide documentation on their control protocols, not to standardize around a a single unified protocol.
The Windows RGB implementation might get companies to standardize around the HID Lamp Array protocol though.
