    Probably. But maybe it is my habit of unshitifying every OS I install. I always decline telemetry, ads and suspecious features since Win10 rolled out. Same on my android phones. Use adblock since I cannot stand seeing ad banners without freaking out.

    My point is: Microsoft and Google always offer opting-out. Users are responsible for accepting or declining services like telemetry. If you still cry about this crap: FIX YOUR CONFIG.

    I cannot relate to most of your points. I’ve never seen the ads you describe. UI made a huge leap forward after they neglected it for decades, so it almost caught up to the usual Linux DEs (as they were some years ago). System performance is not worse than on my several Linux systems.

    I just don’t see the point in switching to Linux now, if you haven’t already done years ago.



















  • What you are looking for is tactile feedback. There are switches with a tactile bump - which are more on the silent side - and there are clicky switches - which are pretty loud, but they also offer even more tactile feedback.

    The switches with only a tactile bump behave almost like linear switches, but you can feel a little bump (higher resistance) when pushing down a key.

    Clicky switches have a so called click bar. They are spring loaded and they trigger themselves right after their “tactile bump”. This behaviour comes close to your keyboard. However, clicky switches are very loud because of their click sound.

    I have tried the K5 Pro (tactile), recently. It feels good, but you may accidently miss-type during the first hours of using. The spring force is a little weak.
