I haven't been around that much in the last several years because I bought and sold a ton of keyboards to find the best ones for me, and I did (Topre). But in the last couple of years, I've been craving an extremely tactile keyboard that has the most ridiculous tactile bump (sharp or rounded, doesn't matter), because often as I type, I have this feral energy I need to let out (especially when I'm in the flow while writing a novel), and none of the keyboards/switches I have currently can satisfy that urge to pound the ever loving **** out of the keyboard (the fact I'm also a multi-instrumentalist musician, including drums, might have something to do with it).

So yeah. I want the most over-the-top and extreme tactile feedback, so I can feel that satisfaction of pounding the **** out of the keyboard as I type. Ideally, in TKL or no smaller than 75%, and if there are silent/quiet options, I'd prefer that, because what I want is more tactile response, not more noise. For example, I love how quiet the blush switches are on my Nuphy Node 75.

For context, I think out of all my boards right now, the most tactile ones are these, but they are still FAR from the level of tactile response I crave:
Unicomp Mini M (so damn loud though)
Cherry MX Clear
Topre 55g
Niz Plum X87 (modified with BKE Topre Dome Replacements V2 and silencing rings V2)

Even though the buckling spring of the Unicomp is the most tactile out of my boards, it's still not enough. I want to feel like I'm breaking the bones of some creature every time I hit a key. I want nuclear detonation and post-apocalyptic MAD MAX level of tactile response.

Let's see what the market has to offer these days. Thanks!
