Currently contemplating a Filco. Thing is, I live in a house shared with 4 other students. The wall between my room and my next-door neighbor is so thin/flimy that, at night, you can understand conversations taking place in the other room. (Not during the day though, we generally have to raise our voices a bit to communicate;)).
It's not like there's no wall at all, but you can kind of compare it to communicating through a wooden front door.

So, are MX blues loud enough to keep my 'housies' awake at night? If so, I'll probably go for browns.
I'd hate to have to switch keyboards after 1am.

its been easier for me to maintain higher apm marks with less frustration with keyboards using scissor switches (or similar, as in the ones on laptops)

on the other hand, i've been using a used saitek keyboard with regular keys and i find it difficult
without a lot of effort

with longer fingers, i prefer to go for the less effort route, but i personally want to try a good mechanical one : ( just not with as robust keys as the ones i've been using

good luck to you !

sometimes i mic-chat with a friend who uses the same keyboard.....
it's super loud but the walls//doors usually closes out the sound
