Have other switches been used when choosing a keyboard? Why did the choice fall on the reds?

I guess I should write an article about mech keyboards! :D

I used a switch tester to figure out what I’d prefer typing on. My flatmate uses blues and browns and both were too noisy for my liking, so I picked reds because they’re softer and quieter.

The Kailh box are great as well because the box stem means they stabilise the keycap more so it doesn’t move when you type. 10/10 would recommend.

Just a quick update, I ended writing a series on mechanical keyboards that you can read here if you're interested!
