Just wondering what kind of key switch it is?

Rubber domes, and relatively crappy ones at that.

Some key caps have stems connected to key caps (1 piece) that slide through a plastic plate and rest on rubber domes/membrane below.  When you pop those caps off, you see a hole with rubber down inside.

This board you have has a stem/slider that is separate from the key cap so it vaguely resembles a mechanical ALPS switch, but it is really a rubber dome.
