I'm planning to buy a new keyboard. Can anyone recommend one with blue, brown, or red switches? Which is better for everyday use? I live alone; there aren't many people around. I mainly use it for chatting or having AI do things. Can anyone give me some recommendations?

After trying different switches with a chinese keyboard I got offAliexpress, I prefer ones with subtle tactile feeling but not much noise. Even though I don't have to worry about people around me being annoyed by noise, I'm actually sensitive to noise myself. Even with headphones on, I really don't want every keypress to be a gunshot xD

I think in the end I left all the keys their default, except I replaced some with kitten pawpad squishies lmfao
I think they may be brown...
But the great thing is, you can buy a good keyboard that let's you swap the switches yourself and buy a set of each switch type and just try them all out yourself, right?

I bought a super compact keyboard for travel purposes. This one has red switches by default(but the one I got has Brown), and it's half the price of the one I bought 2 years ago o.o
