Low profile, silent but tactile switches. Do they exist? (lemmy.world)

Hello! I've recently began my rabbit-hole-into-mechanical-keyboard world* and I got an Epomaker LUMA 100. I didn't like the switches that came with it, so I got a pack of gateron ks33 banana & ks33 red. Turns out the pins on these don't fit (left pin is lower than the right). So, any recommendations? Office has open floorplan so I'm hoping for as quiet as possible while still being able to feel the keys.

*I could write a novel here but won't haha. I've been using a Logitech k850 for years but wished they made a Bluetooth backlit one.

The gateron switches from amazon came with reversed pins. I didn't think they came in more than one configuration, but apparently they do?

That sounds crazy!
