    I never knew adblockers were a thing until the most recent hubbub with YouTube, so I went down a rabbit hole and the world is a better place.

            Really? That’s surprising. Are you just indifferent about the clickiness?

            I definitely aren’t as fanatical about them as most people, I don’t mind using non mech keys. But I definitely prefer using a nice mech keyboard when I have the option.

            Well a mechanical keyboard could help you type a little faster actually. I think the primary appeal of them is that they feel nice to type on though. Another reason people buy them is because they’re good for playing games competitively such as CS:GO.

              Thanks. I was looking at this boring looking keyboard (a look which I personally like, I’m ashamed to say): https://www.amazon.com/Perixx-PERIBOARD-428-Mechanical-Keyboard-Backlighting/dp/B08F3V93KS

              I like low profile keyboards, and don’t like the sharp noise from blue switches. This seems OK. What do you think?

                That’s a nice keyboard, I personally can’t stand the “gamer aesthetic” so it looks good to me. I used to use a Cherry keyboard which looked like one of those large beige keyboards from the 90s, which I liked not just because Cherry manufacters the switches you see in more expensive mech keyboards so it was nice having a Cherry brand keyboard, but also because it looked quite unique compared to modern keyboards. That keyboard had Cherry blue switches, unfortunately I broke that keyboard (entirely my fault.) My current keyboard looks very similar to that one, with Kailh blue switches.

                There’s two main companies that manufacture the keys for mech keyboards, Cherry and Kailh. Cherry is a German company and their switches last longer and are usually considered to be a little better to use but that is quite subjective. Kailh is a Chinese company, like I say they don’t last for quite as long but you’ll definitely still get minimum 3 years out of them, most likely they’ll last 5+ years with daily use. Kailh switches are cheaper and so the keyboards are cheaper (except for Razer, they use Kailh switches but charge the same price as companies that make keyboards with Cherry switches lol.) I haven’t used Cherry/Kailh brown switches (that keyboard has Kailh browns) but I understand they’re good switches for general use, especially in an office context. They’re less clicky but otherwise similar to blues.

                You might want look up a comparison of the various switches, but here’s a graphic I could find with some basic info. Linear switches have no “bump” where you can feel the switch being actuated, tactile and clicky switches do but with tactiled you only feel it, there is no corresponding click sound (or much less of one.)

                  Hey, thanks for the great reply! I plan to go for this or the Lenovo Thinkpad wired keyboard because I’m used to laptop keyboards and like the low-profile keyboards more.

              That one is a bit more about the how rather than the why. HTBUaP gets into the nitty about ruling out less violent action since out industrialist-owned officials haven’t responded sufficiently concerns and grievances.

    I’ll be surprised if I’m still alive, to be honest. The way things seem to be going, affording any ongoing healthcare won’t be possible. Hell, I’d be surprised if I can still afford rent anywhere (there’s no way I can afford to actually buy property anywhere that isn’t in the middle of nowhere, let alone property with a house of some kind on it) by 2030.
