I prefer PC or POM, but it depends on how soft/firm you like for feel and what sorta sound you like.
PC is softest and ideal for low pitched sounds, aluminum is hardest and ideal for higher pitched sounds. POM is very similar to PC but a good choice for a creamy sounds. FR4 is between POM and aluminum for feel with a good middling sound profile for marbley or poppy sounds.

The Tofu65 2.0 is a great board, I'd say go for it. u/2manypedals is spot on with considering the Envoy, it too looks like a great board.
You could try to pick up a Q2, QK65, Jris65, or Zoom65 second-hand if you're comfortable with buying used.

I have used TX Rev. 3 stab kits a few times in the last few weeks and all have been good. No complaints.

Reply to Glorious Lynx lubed switches too mushy by gobstopp
The pre-lubed Lynx switches use G-Lube which is slightly thicker than Krytox 205g0 (the quintessential switch lube) and factory lube jobs usually have some issues or inconsistencies. I personally really enjoy the pre-lubed Lynxes. It could be that you simply prefer tactile switches to get some feedback upon key press.
I suggest trying Boba U4T (strong tactile) or Invokeys Blueberry Chiffon (gentle tactile), or if you want to try another linear check out the Gateron Milky Yellow Pro.

Reply to comment by Ssyynnxx in According to PC Gamer lubing switches does nothing lol by zarian100
I tend to browse Anandtech, Gamers Nexus (for videos), TechPowerUp, TechSpot, and Tom's Hardware. TechSpot and Tom's Hardware can be iffy sometimes but otherwise I feel like that's a pretty solid list. GN is simply fantastic, great content with objective reviews.

PC Gamer and most of those gaming/tech news outlets are a total joke. They don't care about quality content that might actually be useful or interesting to somebody, they only care about clicks.

The MM switches are a lot of fun, I love them. My favorite combo so far is UHMWPE upper/lower housings, LY stems, and 53g tri-stage springs. Super smooth and a good sound.

Yes, 2.4 GHz wireless uses a little USB thingy like a wireless mouse
I checked the Zoom TKL listings from vendors and could only find BT, so I guess the Zoom TKL doesn't have 2.4 wireless. I thought it did, sorry

The new Mode Envoy will have a tri-mode PCB, and the Zoom keyboards have this as well.

ESD concerns apply to any/all products with a PCB. Consoles, computers, keyboards, etc.

Not worth it IMO. It's cool that Glorious offers something to help flex and hopefully the "v2" of the GMMK Pro will put into practice what Glorious has (hopefully) learned, but I feel like it's too late to save the reputation of the board.
Let us know how much of a difference the flex kit provides!

Reply to How much time do you spend using your mechanical keyboard and what types of activities do you use it for? by JarJarAwakens
I work as an IT consultant (read: a lot of typing, data entry, etc.) and I use a modded Keychron Q5. At home I mostly bounce between a Freebird60 and Odin V2. The board I use at home is completely spontaneous and depends solely upon my mood when I sit down at my desk.
