I really liked the feeling of the mechanical keyboards. I'm a newbie at this and I bought one, and got pain in wrists within a few days. So had to stop using it and go back to my almost flat Logitech.

It seems it's required to use palm rests to have a good experience?

Maybe you just need switches with a lower weight requirement to depress then?

Lighter springs make tactile switches feel so much better too.

Was trying to think what a tactical switch was for a second there, assumed it was a gaming thing, then realised you meant tactile, lol.

Those are my bag, great feeling without being too loud.
