Late to the "party" but I have multiple because I don't want to carry one all the time when I work at home/office. In addition to that it's nice to have some variation in looks and feel. Some days I enjoy very heavy switches. Other days I want to have lighter switches.
That's a good point about wanting some variation from time to time. I think that describes my approach as well. I had been trying different liners recently but ended up going back to my tactiles because I liked them more overall. It's not that I didn't like the linears for certain things, but with only one board, I wasn't going to keep switching back and forth when I wanted to game vs type etc
Yes exactly. I mostly do home office and recently switched to Kailh Box navies on my main keyboard. It's great for typing but don't want to game with it. And taking off all keycaps and switches is not only tedious but also not great for longevity I assume.
