Do you use the quiet ones, or the clicky ones? I have one of each, but I generally prefer the quiet ones.

- ScottBurson 8y agoI originally ordered two with the Quiet Click switches, but when my first one arrived I wasn't that taken with them, so I asked Jesse to change my second one to the Click switches. But those were even worse; some of the keys were sticky. There was eventually an update from Keyboardio (https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/keyboardio/the-model-01-an-heirloom-grade-keyboard-for-seriou/posts/2314407 https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/keyboardio/the-model-01...) about the problems with the Click switches, but before that came out, I decided to try converting the Click keyboard to the Quiet Linear switches, as described by someone on the forum. I do like the Quiet Linear better; I think they're almost as good as anything else. However, I have also noticed that I dislike the Quiet Click less than I originally did; I think they've loosened up a bit with use. (The problem I had with them was that there was a bit of friction in the travel; not enough to make the key stick, but enough to make them less pleasant to type on.)
- jimpudar 8y agoDo you have a link to the forum post about the Quiet Linear mod? I'd be interested in checking that out. I used the Matias Ergo Pro with the Quiet Click switches pretty much exclusively before I got my Model 01, so I was already very used to that style of switch when I first got the board.
