So lubricated switches then? And gold gimmicks?

Cherry doesn't have anything but IP. if you are desperate for feel, then buying gaterons and lubing them is a better deal than whatever they've got going to for twice the price.

    The gold contacts are definitely a meme in my mind too, but let's see the reviews & vendor prices. I don't frequently build keyboards, and the ones I build are a few hundred euros anyway. If I add another 20 bucks for somewhat of a better experience, fuck it why not?

    tbh, i think we reached a point where there are so many switches available, that cherrys are almost the worst price/performance product imho.

    I'd actually like to try their new ergo clears because actual ergo clears or the switches that were very similar (Zeal V1) tend to be my favorites.

    Cherry, stop. The whole point is that there are copycats
