Wow, thanks for posting this. I always felt like something was off in a subtle way with most mechanical keyboards I've used, but your explanation nails it.
Totally explains why I ended up settling on HHKB, which actually feels like it registers the button press right when you feel that "click" (given it is much closer to IBM Model M than to the usual mechanical switches).
- TacticalCoder 5y agoSame here... I'm not too sure how the Topre switches in the HHKB do work but I went from years and years on Model Ms to Topre. I'm using HHKB since so long I don't even remember when I started using them. I tried all the Cherry out there but Topre is my favorite switch by very far.
- fomine3 5y agoCapacitive or optical switch are the best for this. Some keyboards like Realforce supports changing actuation point as you like.
