I've only been actively chasing the mechanical dragon for a couple of years but I'm glad to find a community of enthusiasts to discuss the journey.
My personal bias is for clicky switches and PBT keycaps.
Currently using an NCR-80 with Zeal Clickiez (75g). I have a set of DCS caps on it but I don't love the feeling, so I'm waiting on an order of Osume red pandas to see how those feel. Previously I had an MT3 set which I sort of regret getting rid of.
