Hardware-wise i think there was never a worse time to switch to mac than now, unless you are going iMac, which wasnt refreshed for quite some time.
I have 3 macs, pre 2016 and im cosidering the reverse switch - to Linux, because there is nothing interesting on apple lineup for far too long and im loosing hope.
The built-in keyboards are very bad, and I'm not sure what happened to them. I used a 2012 MacBook for a while when I worked at Purdue and the keyboard on that one was perfect.
That said, the official external keyboards Apple sells are actually pretty good (or were as of 3 years ago at least).

Laptop with broken keyboard by design? No thanks.
My new employer hasn't asked my preferences, except what color I want for my official iPhone.
I am aware of the keyboard issues. I'll make the best of it.

Yep, external are pretty good, but when going external nothing beats good mechanical stuff. <3
Clicking is addicting :)
