DEADicationMe. Because I would buy an ALPS board like this one if there was more compatibility out there. I also don't like typing on DSA so even Granite being compatible hasn't pushed me over enough to get an ALPS board.
How does the actuation feel with these switches compared to Gateron Blues? Do they wobble on the way down/up?

xtianyvesit's a much more defined actuation that will push you to bottom out and since ALPS uses a click leaf rather than a click jacket as part of the slider it doesn't have difference between actuation point and deactuation point
Matias is much more interesting compaired to most mx switches, and you really have to start making modified switches for mx to compete in my opinion, but I still prefer my complicated white ALPS boards to matias

xtianyvesMatias’s updated switches have greatly improved wobble To me it feels more less the same as Cherry MX switches, as well as Outemus. I’ve tried Gatistotles but not plain Jane Gaterons that I know of. I’d expect the Datacomp switches to retain the considerable wobble of original Alps switches.
