Yeah, OP should just find a hot-swap Keychron they like and call it a day. If the keeb bug bites, it’s plenty good enough not to find embarrassing. If it doesn’t, it’s a solid and repairable board to use for a long time.
Comment on Are there any better mechanical keyboards that don't break the bank?

Keychron keyboards are solid and maintainable, and available in Canada. Pick a model that supports swapping switches, and start with brown switches perhaps - they’re on the more quiet end of the spectrum, but common so you won’t break the bank. Then over time you can customize it as your budget allows - different switches if browns are not the right fit for you, keycaps of your preferred colour, etc.

It is great that the firmware is open source. However their customer support is utter shite. I have given up several times hoping for help on a keyboard bug.

I have a full-size Keychron, and I love it, I think it was fantastic bang for buck
