With my first and only custom build, I got Boba U4T switches and initially followed the advice that they shouldn’t get lubed. I used it that way for a few months and enjoyed it, but thought there is some scratchy feeling that I can get rid of. I basically ignored all advice and put a light lube on everything, and I’ve been incredibly happy with the results ever since. I really don’t understand where the myth of lube ruining tactile switches came from.
