A racist white-centering thing white people do instead of activism
Especially prevalent when a pandemic prevents white people from doing their other boarding like surfboarding and snowboarding, keyboarding is a white hobby of writing enormous diatribes about white feelings, such as outrage about black people being brutalized and killed by police officers.
Keyboarding is often used to sidestep actual activism, such as reposting people of color or engaging in the direct action asked of them such as making calls or writing letters to other white people.
Keyboarding was first made popular in the civil rights movement by white moderates and liberals, who Martin Luther King lamented were a "great stumbling block," and Malcolm X described as "the worst enemy to America."

"Did you see that post going viral? 'Black people, we're here for you!' It's so moving."
"Sounds like keyboarding."
"I finally got my aunt to stop keyboarding. She kept saying she was fighting white supremacy -- so embarrassing, right?!"
"Yikes! Hopefully you reminded her every white person spends an average of 22 hours a day enjoying and building white supremacy."

A person who happens to be very funny online, on forums or private conversations, but ends up being pretty boring, awkward or hard to talk to in the real world.
-I really thought we were going to have a better yesterday with Matt, he seemed like he was so clever and funny on Facebook. Turns out he was just weird and awkward in person.
-Yeah, he's a keyboard comedian.

Keyboard of shame is any iOS app that has not been updated to support iOS 7 and still uses the old interface style.
There are a lot of apps, such as Trainyard, still on the store, some of them suffering from app rot have the keyboard of shame.

A person with boomer tendencies when interacting with others on the internet. A Keyboard boomer will often take the bait of trolls as a serious disagreement, leading them to spend time and resources defending their position to educate the troll on the other side of the conversation.
