Personally, I'm not a fan of brown switches, no matter the manufacturer. I'd suggest looking into Gazzew U4 Boba, or KTT Sea Salt Lemon. There are tons of options out there, I tend to build boards with a mix; tactile on the modifiers, linear on the main alphabet, and clicky on the numpad.

Nice looking boards, though, I love those keycaps!

Thank you for those suggestions, I'll look into them. Coming from my clicky phase and into a pop, cozy feel so these particular switches are missing that mark a bit. It's perfect for me on the white board though.

I just really like the overall look of the board but I realize it's not for everyone. Glad i'm not alone in the appreciation of the vibe.

You are not alone! After many months, I still get that tiny thrill when I start typing on my white 84 every morning.

It's like typing on a love letter

I love Gateron Milky Yellows- they have a really nice feel and sound. I like a soft pop sound and it hits the mark!

I had looked at those and wasn't sure if that would be the right move. I'll be going on to youtube and tiktok to watch some content on them. I like the ink blacks as well.

I guess why not both? Trial and error

Yes! Also check out Akko Matcha Greens. I have also found that lubing really assists with some sound and modding the board a bit if you’re up for it.

i'm a little nervous to fully open the board. I haven't done that yet and I don't know if I want my first time to be on board that's this pricey.

I have a crappy red dragon board i guess I could dry run it on.

Yes! Get a good cheap one to mess around on! I’m currently working on a feker ik75
