Just got a choc Sofle and standard red choc switches along with it (50g weight). Compared to the gateron pro reds I have in my Keychron Q1 they don’t feel quite as smooth and snappy. I’d describe them as feeling heavier and sludgy almost… any thoughts on other variants to try? Would choc silvers feel closer to my mx style gpro reds? Pinks seem like they’d be too light… I don’t want switches that are too easy to mistakenly activate.

Nope, they were too red for me. If the crystal reds were 5pin I’d use them a lot more.

Haha, too red? Oh, you mean the housing color itself?

Yeah, lol. Red is one of my least favorite colors.

I like it but… sparingly. It needs to be used with intention and preferably as an accent.

Ergonomic, split and other weird keyboards

Rules

Keep it ergo

Posts must be of/about keyboards that have a clear delineation between the left and right halves of the keyboard, column stagger, or both. This includes one-handed (one half doesn’t exist, what clearer delineation is that!?)

i.e. no regular non-split¹ row-stagger and no non-split¹ ortholinear²

¹ split meaning a separation of the halves, whether fixed in place or entirely separate, both are fine.
² ortholinear meaning keys layed out in a grid
