[@AlkaVirus]

The factory lubes are always scratchy. Always.

[@tarragoni4161]

@@AlkaVirus wdym by that?🤔🤔

[@AlkaVirus]

@@tarragoni4161 because of the way factory lube is applied it doesn't give the optimal smooth feel. So no I don't think factory lube is a good option especially for an enthusiast hobby like this. Noone buys switches for their keyboard and settles for second best sound and feel instead of just manually lubing for the ultimate sound and feel.

The gateron oil kings are so well lubed that its generally not even recommended to try relubing them yourself cus youd probably just waste time.

[@xXAsunaxKiritoXx]

I just lubed mine and it def was worth my time. Stock it had a bit of a clack for me since I had a Alu plate. Lubed them up and the higher tone clack is pretty much all gone and more deeper sounding.

[@Big-Chungus21]

@@xXAsunaxKiritoXx It likely does improve the keys a little bit. Though, its probably better to not buy them in the first place if youre going to lube them.

[@xXAsunaxKiritoXx]

I was already dead set on lubing them. I had set my choice of either durock poms or oil kings and oils came into fruitition after finding a killer deal. My spare keebs with lubed milky yellows, I like them but wanted to try other things. Might consider durock poms next

"All keyboard switches are the same" - wrong "All MODERN keyboard switches are the same" - 95% correct 5% because although the list is really short there are manufacturers that are coming up with actually new design and reviving good retro designs instead of just manufacturing billion different variations of cherry mx with little to no difference

[@chrisk3127]

besides one of my orders off amazon missing some switches (blue bag they came in wasn't closed guessing they fell out in the warehouse) pretty happy with WS reds and yellows (yellows are a bit light for my preference), haven't tried the WS heavy tactiles yet

[@zloboslav_]

I feel like the switches are the primary sound generator and all other components mostly dampen or amplify the switch's initial sound. That's why they are most important.

[@JohnIdlewood]

I was always amazed that many our keyboard-hobbyists think that they know better than engineers who design switches and continue to lube them

Nobody ever thought all switches were the same

[@mpshc016]

actually all switches are different and not the same at all.. that being said, i could be wrong if you just dont use the board. linears, tactile, clicky, different actuation forces all matter after extensive use during a session. as a rhythm player, i can say that every single of our fingers, as well as our wrist all have different properties and needs. i can play with linear for speed, tactile for better feeling, but clicky is a bane. thanks

Nah they ain't. My blue clicky switches helps me drown out that irritating voice in my head. Don't think silent switches can help me achieve that objective.

[@dahpython7764]

what about akko lubed switches? thinking of picking up some lubed jelly blacks

[@themicansking2434]

I have the jelly blacks and other akko switches. They have a poppy clacvky sound that's kind of inconsistent and ever present in their linears and tactiles, and i heavily dislike it. It's really bad in plastic or hollow boards. I recommend gat milky yellows for budget, though the DK Halu Halo switches are pretty good too, but you have to lube these yourself. Highly recommend, the halu Halo switches have a pleasant upstroke and deeper sound than the milky yellows. I am more into tactiles, and i only have akko jelly blacks, Milky yellows, and halu Halo. The halu Halo are my favorite by far for smoothness and having a pleasant sound. I highly recommend staying away from preluded switches that are budget. Higher quality pre lube jobs are leagues better and cost more. My experience with wuque studios is not great, very loud inconsistent switches. For tactiles i go for more expensive options that aren't bank breaking but not budget. The gab between budget and average pricing is crazy but the jump from average to super expensive switches is very hit or miss. For tactiles i love the DK strawberry milk switches (they have a linear version!!!!). Very 'thocky' sound if you're into that. I like them in a poppier clackier build for a more interesting sound, that has good mids.

[@BlenderRender1]

all switches are the same? bruh in what case is this true I know I just now got into this hobby but that claim sounds very wrong. I got a cheap amazon keyboard and moded the whole thing got new switches (akko Jelly Blacks) and they sounded so much better and felt better than cheap amazon blue switches. all keyboards sound different because of the switches. so what do you mean by all switches are the same?

[@embeg]

I just lubed my switches and it is so fun + waisting my fucking time

[@sandwich-plays]

i lubed my silent switches and they sound and feel the same as unlubed??!? how is that even possible

[@Spiriax]

After a clicky period I am interested to try tactiles and linears (probably linears, reason I didn't like clicky so much is because I first hear the click then the bottom-out too and I think tactiles will be the same), and it's just impossible to know what to get. I thought I would order some samples of well-reviewed switches, but what I wonder is should I go for pre-lubed switches only? Or am I missing out then?

[@obsidianquill7949]

Well first of all a tactile switch will sound just like a linear but with a louder top out sound. You don’t hear the “click” before you bottom out on tactiles. Most people including me despise lubing switches. It is one of if not the most tedious part of keyboard building. There are people who find it relaxing but if you aren’t the type to like slow and repetitive motions then lubing isn’t for you. Plus factory lube these days are on par with hand lubed switches so it’s not necessary unless you’re getting an old gen switch (anything released before 2022)

[@Spiriax]

@@obsidianquill7949 Thanks for the tips! What I ended up doing in the end is order lots of popular switch samples (mostly linears), see if I like them, and then get lots of switches of the one I like the most regardless if it needs lubing or not, and in the end I would decide whether or not I would lube those switches. I think I can do it, and I kind of want to try it. Even if it might end up taking more than one day, haha.

Guess what Hipyo, it’s day 9. Day 9 of what you ask? Well I’m glad you asked. It’s day 9 of asking for a Temu keyboard vid 😳 and you may be thinking, “when will this very cool guy stop asking?” And the answer is: never until it happens 😳

can i use wd40 to lube em?

[@YourLifeWillForeverBeALie]

What switches do you recommend for a gaming keyboard that are pre-lubed

[@HipyoTech]

Speed switches might feel the best to some people, but really any switch that you enjoy works for gaming

[@grubbygeorge2117]

If you don't wanna go the wooting route for analog switches, I'd suggest a light linear of some kind. Because there's not much force required to press them down, you'll be able to react to things quickly and won't feel fatigued after hours of gaming

[@farmeunit]

I like speeds and reds. I have been buying yellows which are like a stiffer red and they are really nice for typing might be ok.

[@connorswartz1862]

The ROG NX red switches I really really enjoy for gaming. They come pre-lubed, sound amazing, feel amazing, and are great for gaming

[@obsidianquill7949]

The keebhut tropical water switches have a long pole meaning a shorter bottom out giving you that “fast” feeling. The ttc gold pinks have a very light spring which allows you to press down faster. Both are immaculate out of the box and don’t cross $40 in price (assuming you get 70 switches)

[@Valorhammer]

heh, jokes on you since I'm a heavy headed typer the only really comfortable switches to me are box clicky, lube means nothing to do them mwahahahaha
