What Should You Know Before Using a Tactile Switch?
With each keystroke, tactile switches give a tactile bump as well as a relatively little aural click. Tactile switches give good feedback when typing, letting you know that everything is in working order and that all of your inputs are being recorded.

Is it preferable to be linear or tactile?

Tactile switches are versatile performers that are capable of handling a wide range of typing tasks. They're quieter than clicky switches (so you won't annoy your friends over the mic) and have a better feel than linear switches for pure typing in MMOs and games that need regular dialogue.

Is it necessary to lubricate tactile switches?

It's a good idea to lubricate tactile switches but start with a thin lubricant. Heavier lubrication may also be effective, albeit it will likely eliminate most of the tactile hump. Because linear switches already work in a smooth and uniform manner, the lubrication decreases friction and scratchiness.
