I have a Keychrom K7 Pro with brown switches. I like the low profile keycaps and QMK has become a necessity. I am curious about red and blue switches. I understand the difference between all the switches and have keycap testers, which include many others, but I’ve not had the chance to type on all three.

I’m primarily concerned with how the feel of the switches you use contribute to your typing quality and overall experience. It would be great if you have any input spanning multiple switches.

P.S. I know there are keyboard subs, but I asked the question here as they are not as active

      I don’t use them, the 96% K4v2 and v3 are what I prefer for the compact but nearly full sized.

      The k17 pro is ok but I don’t enjoy the extra size. The smallest keyboards I can use are 60% or 10 keyless since I use function keys and num pads all to often.

      If I was a writer and not do doing math/engineering related things I would skip the extra keys.

        Thanks for sharing. Maybe I’ll try the compact. I have become so accustomed to the full sized keyboard, but I do find it to be clumsy.
