That note about my lubed switches changed everything

Someone on the build stream told me my Krytox 205g0 application was way too thick and making my switches sound mushy. I was putting a generous coat on every stem like I saw in a tutorial from 2022, but they said to use barely a whisper of lube on the contact points only. I redid a batch of Gateron Yellows with just a tiny dab and the clack is so much cleaner now - anyone else get feedback that made them redo their whole process?

Redo them with different film thickness to tune the sound profile.

@shah.shane right, like my ears aren't confused enough already.
