You describe me quite well too :)
I tried dozens of switches, key caps and layouts over the years. Soldering my own switches, trying different materials to soften the sound for the perfect “thocc”
It was/is a fun hobby but over time I grew out of it and now I am happy with a simple low profile keyboard.
My favourites (in no particular order) are: Apple Magic Keyboard with Numpad, Microsoft Surface keyboards, and the Logitech MX Keys.
I also used to really like the old Microsoft natural keyboards many, many years ago
Interestingly (to me anyway) is that even though I am British I have grown to prefer a US (ANSI) layout over an ISO layout. Not really sure why though if I am honest.
