Hey,
I’m choosing keys switches.
I have to choose between kailh red or the pro red (for a zsa voyager).
I’m torn because I’m reading online that many find the normal reds too stiff, but I’m worried that the pro red won’t allow me to rest on the home row without misfires.
I absolutely do rest my fingers on the home row. Especially when starting typing. I use the concave feel of the caps to confirm I’m in the right place to start.
My research suggests that the mx blacks I use at home are stiffer than the reds (60gf, but much more travel), and the keys on my thinkpad are in theory stiffer too (57gf).
Has anyone here trodden this same path? Any insights?
Sadly I don’t have much choice of kind of switch: it’s for a keyboard for use in a shared office.
I use mx black at home and find them good to type on.
I ended up buying a switch tester. Just waiting for it to arrive from aliexpress.
