Second this, I’ve built myself a silent office k7. It has low profile optical switches (less travel more silent), and bought a pack of their mint switches. They have higher resistance so that should help with the noise, I also lubed them. Coworkers don’t even know that I have mechanical board.

I’ve had good experience with keychron. Check out their website, lots to choose from.

Will try that later today. Thank you very much!

EDIT: Took a long time, but worked as expected. Thank you!

I always leave the battery with some space around it. You never know when it starts to vent. Also wrapping around battery decreases airflow, I know that the current in this cases is not big and battery should probably never heat up, but I’m just careful with batteries.

Not sure how to check if they’re bots or not, but I would enable captcha for registrations. Also that’s where I was pointing at, other users might have searched for these communities. I also have many of them on my instance which I’ve never searched for, and I think that it’s all from them. All it takes is for some random user to click on a community in a post and it’s then added to your instances.

Are you alone on your instance? Or do you also have another users there?

No problem! I’ve also put some neoprene into the case, to mute it even further.

I’m using keychron k7, which I carry into the office. I’ve bought the keychron low profile optical mint switches, and lubed them. The keeb is very silent, small and the feel is okay. Coworkers don’t even know that I drive a mechanical keyboard.

Edit: if you don’t like the layout, they have the same keyboard with different number of keys. Look into their low profile section.
