When I built my first keyboard, I used MX Browns because I didn't know any better. Then I read all the /r/MK threads and other forum posts where Browns are (almost) universally shit on. The conventional wisdom was that they were the worst switches out there. So my next keyboard was some clicky green thing. Can't remember the brand. They were very tactile and clicky, but I didn't like them. One problem was that the click was fake! It's a separate bar that snaps as the key travels down, but it's not associated with the electrical contacts at all. So depending on the key, it's possible to generate a keypress without hearing a click or (worse) get a click without closing the switch. I'm back on Browns now. I think you're right about the fetish. The clicks sound really cool, but they're not as useful as people claim. Or maybe I just have a "thunk" fetish, I don't know.
