Wuque Studios is outrageously impressive and insanely cheap (in the switch department)

Yeah something that helps is holding the back of the pcb, basically the socket, while inserting the switch :) that decreases the chances but you have to take the board apart. Which I suggest putting something in there because sound is hollow

Thank you for all the suggestions! They were all very good, but I don't need switch advice anymore because I have decided on gateron milky clears, but milky yellows are a good option, in my opinion.

Definitely gateron milky yellow ( pro if u don't want to lube yourself but it's gonna be a little worse than if you lube them yourself )

This is a good keyboard however watch out for the hot swap dying or breaking off. This happened to me twice. Same brand. Two different boards.

Being a gamer, I picked up touch typing as soon as I got my first PC and it seems like the natural way to type. Discovered the stare-at-the-keyboard way of typing only recently when I saw one of my non-computer-savvy friends type. Glorious 15 WPM

I removed the foam inside and added some dybamat /acoustic film at the bottom plus tape behind the pcb. Sounds better than my q series (deeper)

Don't worry, OP. I started with just the keycap puller since I needed it to clean my membrane keyboard. And few months later, a friend of mine donated his mechanical keyboard until I bought my own.
Small progress is still progress!

A vertical 4:3 is pretty much like A4 paper format.

How so? I find split screen on wide screens very productive, what are the benefits of 4:3 for work? Please give me an excuse to buy one of these and have a retro work station

Ktt Kang White v3's are some very affordable linear switches from AliExpress.

Someone suggested it could be designed for use with gloves. But it sure looks like a typesetting situation. So no idea why they'd need gloves. Maybe it slows typists down to reduce errors?
