pretty much anything with good reviews?

there are also lots of different switches--do some googling and figure out what "type" would suit you best. I have a monoprice kb with cherry blues (I think they're discontinued) and it's been solid

there's a reddit for mechanical keyboards which get really deep into "customizing it" and "xyz keyboard has shitty keycaps" and such

the quickfire rapid seems like a good choice

buckling springs is what cherry imitates with the blues and others if you look at how the action works. kind of a springy buildup and a release. i'd get unicomp. the actual coiled spring feels better to me. just feel whatever you want first and compare

it is a type of mechanical switch on a keyboard made by cherry. cherry mx blue switch. it is supposed to give it a tactile click. the original clicky keyboard is the ibm m series though, and unicomp holds the rights to the tech

google image search for cherry blue there's a gif showing the action. it is like a flat spring and a piece that pops out and clacks to make the noise you get with coiled springs, which compress until they buckle over and hit the wall of the key well at the same time a foot is hitting a contact at the bottom. it's hard to explain without showing

I'm leaning towards the browns at this point. I'm more interested in the feel as opposed to the noise.

get reds theyre best if youre good at keyboarding. they dont require full actuation or something and the rebounding requires less release or something.
