Damn. guess I had the most worn down ones ever. Literally almost not feedback at all. So mushy it makes rubber dome feel snappy

This has been my experience. I think that decades-old foam is usually lifeless at best.

So too is the MAGA Republican Party. One of those legs is the nativist extremism of Stephen Miller. The second is the anti-government extremism of Russell Vought.
And the last is the open, flamboyant corruption of Donald Trump — a corruption that degrades a people’s faith in government and makes it all the easier to remake the state in the image of a single man."  - Jamelle Bouie 2025-11-17

there are several generations of keytronic capacitive, most feeling pretty bad. The vintage "logo" switch with sphericals from the late 1970s and early 1980s is probably the best.
