Im using my first mechanical keyboard and the experience has been great so far but, it is quite loud, especially at night, which cheap mods i can make to make it quieter while i can do something like changing the switches?

    As suggested by the other commenter, o-rings are the best cheap solution.

    Another option that works if your keyboard has a hollow body is sound-dampening insulation inside the frame.

    I have a Kinesis Advantage that has a ton of negative space inside and simply putting some non-conductive foam inside the shell made a huge difference in the amount of noise it makes
