Half a day, I think I prefer the MacBook Pro keyboard, key surfaces are bigger so it feels easier to type on it

mechanicals are like this gay thing they show in your link as a comparison? I still use the same wired keyboard I stole from my office when I started to wfh and never thought much about it after that.

I prefer non-mechanical. Mechanical is a cross between a normal computer keyboard and a typewriter. It's for people who like clicky mechanical buttons that you have to try a lot harder to push. I don't like them. It's too much effort. And I don't love the loud banging sounds. I think it's some kind of hipster forcememe. It's like owning vinyl records or something. It's hip to have one so you can talk about it at dinner parties. It's very DINK-y like you never had children but you bought a bunch of expensive Lego sets and your keyboard makes a loud jangle and is kind of hard to push the keys.

I had Cherry MX Red mechanical but changed to the Logitech and never looked back. Now I 100% never think about my keyboard and it's Fine. Mechanical seems like a solution in search of a problem.

I like them, I have an old steelseries (red switches) which is still going strong after like 10 years. I also have a cheap keychron one for when I worked in an office. I much prefer them to my MacBook keyboard, but it doesn't make sense to use them with a laptop, only a desktop

I don't understand the need for anything but red switches, maybe they're for people who used to use typewriters or really funky old keyboards

I converted to a standing desk so needed a keyboard while my laptop is propped up on a stand so that’s when I was like ok let’s shop for some gay keyboards

“Switch preference” is all retared and prob just normal millennial “I need an identity” behavior. Oh you like reds? Well im special and needed blue. No I just LOVE the clackiness of banana switches

Yes I got banana switches

Feels a lot better when you press the switches but they're also bulky and I don't like keys being raised all the way.

i bought this on a good sale and it's easily the best keyboard i've owned:

https://www.corsair.com/us/en/p/keyboards/ch-913a01u-na/k100-air-wireless-rgb-ultra-thin-mechanical-gaming-keyboard-cherry-mx-ultra-low-profile-tactile-ch-913a01u-na#

low profile but has mechanical keys. surfaces all brushed aluminum.
