I’m trying to find mechanical keyboards that are not black/grey, are standard or TKL, and are hotswappable. I have yet to find a site that allows you to sort by all three chritiria, nonetheless sort though multiple brands/sites. Has anyone made a site along these lines?
I kid you not.
J Borrows mechanical.
Brown switches. Backlit. With proper transparent keys. Soft grippy risers. Beautiful form factor. Feels amazing.

They killed it. I’m super impressed.
To search and sort mechanical keyboards more effectively, check out platforms like shopgalactica.com, which offers customization options and detailed product information. You can also use specialized comparison sites like Keeb-Finder for filtering by specs, or engage in keyboard communities on Reddit or Facebook for user reviews and recommendations. Understanding switch types, keycap materials, and layouts will also help narrow down your options.
I didn’t expect to get my answer from a marketing spam bot (nontheless one that can’t even link the relevant website properly), but here we are. Keeb-Finder was what I was looking for.

The amount of obsessive culture around mechanical keyboards has created a boon of great side by side comparison youtube channels. Hippo Tech is one of the most obsessive that I’ve seen.
I personally found myself going crazy with information and decided to go to best buy and just try some floor models. I never would have chosen Steelseries Apex pro and Logi g915 clicky as my favorites online, but they stood out dramatically in the side by side. Once you narrow down your switch type it’s easy to find compatible hitswappable platforms. I like Keychrons personally, but there’s many options especially for TKL

At this point, I’m mostly just trying to figure out what my options are. Trying to search Mechanical Keyboards dot com just burries me in results with no meaningful way to filter them. PcPartPicker is slightly better, but lacks most of the dedicated keyboard brands. The only site I’d found that offered through filters was Memoey Express, although their selection was also very limited. The other comment suggesting Keeb-Finder was pretty much exactly what I was looking for (although a lot of the results aren’t available in Canada, but its still far better).

I believe for the best side by sides you’d want something like rtings.com, they’re most known for monitors but have good neutral data about mechanical keyboards too.
