Mechanical Keyboards - Too Loud??

Finally got myself a mechanical keyboard to complement my wfh setup. Absolutely love it so far, and I can’t believe how much better it feels to type on them vs regular keyboards. However, I am aware that mechanical keyboards can be very loud. Will this annoy others and be a problem in the office? Really want to buy another one for when I go back into the office but don’t want people getting annoyed at me...

 

Get MX cherry brown switches and you should be fine. Maybe even throw some 0.2 o rings if it’s still too loud.

I have MX cherry blues with 0.2 o rings and it’s very nice to type on
