I should try Gaterons sometime. I’ve only ever used Cherry MX Brown. Happily using those atm with my second mech keyb, a Filco TKL. First was a Corsair full-size, also Cherry Brown.
And I’ve tried linear in a shop once, but I hate those. Feels empty to me, like there’s no switch and only makes me push into the frame harder.
For my next keyboard, I’d like something programmable (Caps Lock as Ctrl, hjkl with Fn as arrows, etc) and smaller, no need for F-keys and separate arrow keys.
Yeah, I am with you there. My Keychton K7 Pro came with linear switches. Ist is pretty nice for gaming, but writing just isn’t fun with them. There is something missing.
If you are happy with the Browns, that is totally fine. They are okay. Totally usable switches and waaay better than any rubber dome keyboards. They just suck a bit in comparison with better tactiles.
