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?
I also rest my fingers. I just got some 95g actuation. For me, perfect due to at my work using cut resistant gloves under latex gloves I miss fire cause I can’t feel a damned thing. For home/gaming use, hell no. 70-75 is good for me. Everyone is different though. By some try them out to figure what you like. They aren’t that expensive.
