    i know this a meme

    but for people looking to buy a mechanical and dont get on bc of noise, a mechanical can actually be more quiet than a membrane one. mine right now uses silent switches and has gasket mounting + some foam, all for added noise reduction

    Still better than that guy in Hackers who hooked his keyboard to a drum machine.

    One person? Everybody and their mother are using a mechanical keyboard nowadays. In my office I am the only one with a conventional amazonbasics 10$ keyboard so I can spill my coffee on it every other month without caring about the cost of replacing it..

    I used to work with a sysadmin who had an old IBM model M. You could hear that thing clacking clear across the office. I could actually tell his mood by how obnoxiously loud he was typing.

    I’ve had a mechanical keyboard for many years now, wouldn’t change it for anything, BUT this year I got a more expensive mechanical one and… no noise at all!! So It’s not all of them!

    If they know how to type with 10 fingers, then there is not much noise. The guy in the video doesn’t and so don’t your and my coworkers, hence the 2-finger noise.

    Meanwhile at HR : You know what would be great? An open concept office with no soft surfaces, not even carpet. *No sound absorbing materials of any kind!* 😀

    I don’t understand wanting a loud keyboard. I never will ot bothers me so much to hear every click. It’s super distracting and irritating. I have a friend who was gloating about getting a mechnical keyboard so he could hear it… I won’t lie I was judging him because from my perspective, it is just super annoying but different strokes for different folks quite literally.

    My coworker doesn’t even have a mechanical keyboard, but he smacks it so hard it’s loud…

    I work from home but I have a mechanical keyboard so I can display alpha dominance over everyone during Teams meetings.
