I know nothing of mechanical keyboards, but I have always found cool the Corne ish Zen[1]. However, I don’t work alone so I would like something as silent as possible. I have an old Macally keyboard[2] that I know is silent enough. Is it possible to find a keyboard like the Corne but silent as a regular BT keyboard? Would you recommend one, or it is not actually possible?

    If you type faster than 50 wpm, get clicky switches and own it.

    After about a month they won’t even hear it anymore. :)

    Otherwise, I suggest tactile (which are quieter, but still have a key press to them,) or straight linear (which are even quieter but have no feel to them.)

    Another option is a Hall effect switch (like the wooting keyboard.)
