Hi all, I have a quick and possibly very simple question. I have a keychron V6 with red switches being delivered to me tomorrow. I just want to know what switches and keycaps will fit this keyboard? This is my very first mechanical/swappable keyboard and I know nothing about it. I want to try other switches, mainly brown, blue and yellow. Also want to have a different look keycaps every now and then. I've searched on their site, but I had no idea which ones to choose. lol Thanks in advance.

You should choose some keycap from brand GMK, JTK, Keykobo, PBTfans, EPBT. For switchers, start with entry, easy to find brand like Gateron, KTT. They are good brand, also if you want to save some money, you can buy used keycaps, and switches, the quality doesn't drop.
