All right fair. Thanks for the answer. The XDA and MT3 look pretty interesting. Hopefully I can try both at some point.

XDA sets are very cheap, you can get some on AliExpress for $15

Well shit, look at me being enabled lol. Any weird quirks I need to know regarding the XDA profiles? I know some keycap profiles are supposed to be a little finicky and don't just work with any board or something.

Only thing you need to know is that they're flat - all rows are same height (like DSA, MA,etc)

If you're used to the curve where top rows are higher, you may not like flat profiles

Would be worth a try, but shipping to my country almost triples the price of the keycaps so I won't be trying them anytime soon.

Where are you located? Chances are, there's a pretty good vendor near you.

I'm from South Africa. I've checked the usual online stores and stuff with little luck. Not sure if we have a big enough enthusiast community here but I'm hoping to be proven wrong.
