I still have nightmares about voice chat with people using those keyboards.
Brown keys ftw... shame it's all super clicks or silent smooth as the mainstream
Late to this, but you can't call tactiles "brown" anymore; ever since Cherry's patent expired some 10 years ago the market has exploded. Right now I'm typing on a franken tester board with some 30 tactiles of different make and model, and I barely have scratched 20% of the tactile switches available on the market, by my estimation.
Tell me about it. It's harder to shop now for silent tactile...
Technically, it's easier, because there were 0 in the past. :P But yes, the variety of choice is dazzling!
Zealpc zilents are amazing
