Tactile. A little bit of bump so I know the key registered without bottoming out. My current board has Boba U4T and I am not going back.

Silent linear, I share the flat with my sister and she works night shifts. Peace in the family is worth more than thock 😅

Linear, Gateron yellow lubed by me. The budget king. With 205g0 they sound better than switches that cost 3 times more
