  • Hey OP, I know these responses all generally say not to get one, and for good reason, so that might bum you out. But I just wanted to applaud you for doing your due diligence before getting an exotic pet that you are unfamiliar with. So many people out there get animals that they are unprepared for and don’t do any research before hand, and ultimately it’s the animals themselves that suffer the most. That’s how you end up with pythons in the Everglades. So it’s refreshing seeing someone with forethought and who is genuinely willing to listen to the experience of others. I hope you find a pet that you like, avian or otherwise.




  • A web search says this uses Cherry MX Brown switches

    Strange, I had the same thought about swapping out the switches and found that OP’s keyboard had Razer’s Orange Switches (which supposedly are tactile and silent), but maybe that’s a newer/different model. Regardless, I second the recommendation to try out some different switches. There’s a big different between the feel of linear, tactile, and clicky switches, and if someone doesn’t like one, they might still be fine with another type. Clicky switches in particular can be polarizing for their sounds, but linear switches can be as smooth as butter.

    Am thinking of getting a steam deck for the same reason. I have plenty of time to play games, but almost none of it is uninterrupted time. I NEED the ability to pause and put something down for minutes or hours at any moment to deal with real-world responsibilities.
