They are good. They are very muted however.
I can recommend green and red jackets from knc/tecsee.

No matter how you lube a switch, it shouldn't create a problem.

Unacceptable at any price point tbh.
I have only tried one switch that got worse after lubing, TTC wild.
Haven't tried boba LT, but definitely not gonna now.

Switch ticking is the least talked about problem in keyboards, however it is one of the worst ones to have imo.
I find all uhmwpe blends to have it, but even some switches that are nylon/pc does it. Pretty sure it comes down to the tolerance

Yeah, I'm not talking work, I'm more talking day to day life. Watch, phone, tablet, pc, even TV. It's an ecosystem that catches you if you go down the road. Switching from a PC to Mac or vice versa is probably easy enough.

Haha I catch your drift here.
I agree. I will never in my life purchase an apple product since they are nowhere near the same performance as windows is in my use case. But i can accept that other people but their products. They are easy to use and once you're in the apple ecosystem you will never get out.

Reason that it's only Microsoft and Android fanboys dishing at apple and not the other way around is that apple has nothing to argue with. I'm past the point where you need to tell someone which product is better, but it will never end.

I get where you are coming from. I actually had the exact same thoughts as you.
But after getting a gmk set, I like it way more than any pbt set I have ever owned. The texture of gmk is way better than any pbt set imo.
The shine on the keycaps is preference. But seeing some sets with full shine honestly looks really good.

The original design is not something they keep manufacturing. It comes in group buys and are pretty expensive.
Look up gmk 8008.

Definitely. Get a cheap pbt set or something. Just not clones

Maybe consider upgrading your keycaps to something that actually fits and isn't a clone.

I know a brown switch that's actually tactile! Kailh box browns are surprisingly tactile

It can't really go wrong. Only overlubing, but that's a completely different problem than what is being called out here...
