Just built a board with Gateron Yellows and honestly think they feel nicer than my JWKs

I swapped out my JWK linears for Gateron Yellows on a budget build last week and the smoothness difference was huge for half the price, anyone else find the hype around JWKs isn't always worth it?

Didn't you read that Gateron sponsors half the budget keyboard guys on YouTube though...

Gateron Yellows are seriously underrated for the price. Picked up a set for a hotswap build and they were smoother stock than some $60 JWK sets I've tried. The factory lube on them is actually decent too, which saves a lot of time. Made me wonder why people spend so much on switches that need breaking in or relubing right out of the box.
