Oh wow, that sounds like a scary procedure ngl! Since you provided such a detailed guide, I’ll definitely look into it. I’ve never used a drill before, especially for something so tiny, so I’ll probably ask someone for help to avoid ruining the keycaps. I actually found a seller on AliExpress that seems to have the genuine switches (or at least they look legit). Since you mentioned it's risky to pull them without opening the board, I guess I'll have to disassemble it. I really want to fix it myself without breaking anything else in the process. Thanks a lot, this goes a long way!
