    Changed from tactile (k-pro brown) to linear (k-pro silent red) ones. Very promising changes.. Sounds deep and smooth. Feels a bit heavier. Lovely!

    Hot swap sockets are the bomb, dozens of compatible switches from multiple companies. Started with browns, moved to halo trues (heavy, good for typing but bad for gaming), now Gateron reds.

    Just gotta be careful installing them. The board I bought secondhand is also a hotswap model but some of the contacts were slightly bent when I received it. The switches still work, but knowing that the copper leaves are deformed worries me slightly.

    Hot swap is cool to experiment and upgrade. You can do stuff like use different keys for the Fn row and letters.

    That being said I’ve had a couple issues. I’ve had switches pop out as well as bent pins if you aren’t careful like @Lyander mentioned
