So I've been looking at getting a new tactile 60% keyboard. I can't tell what switch would be the best for me. I would prefer one the has a big bump and is still somewhat easy to type on. A popular switch I've seen is kailh pro purple, but I've still seen people saying the bump isn't noticeable. One problem I ran into is that I can't find any keyboards with switches other than cherry mx, gateron, gateron brown, or kailh. I haven't seen any with kailh pro purples or glorious panda.
 
Have you actually laid fingers on any of these?
Personally, I find that the only way to really choose a keyboard.

Other peoples comments mean nothing to my fingers.
No, but I've tried finder key switch testers, but I feel like they are either too expensive like 50 dollars, or they have linear tactile and clicky for only 1 or 2 companies. I want a tester that has a lot of different kinds of tactile switches.

Edit: I just saw that I could build a keyboard for a reasonable price if I get the gk61x for 50 dollars. Then I could add my own switches.
