Blues are the second loudest.

I like blues but I never typped on greens, but I think they're too heavy.

There are 10 types of people in this world, those who understand binary, and those who don't.

No, I don't know how easily fatigued some peeps' fingers can be, but it isn't THAT heavy/stiff. White and Clear are heavier. I've typed with green, blue, black, brown, red and even a heavier buckling spring Model M. White and clear are lighter than buckling spring, and I don't feel fatigued at all......but then, I don't type for hours on end, so I can't say if I'd be fatigued with extended use.

 

As for which is louder, I can't really tell the difference......the blue and green switch on my Ducky KB sound the same, as do the green on my Trigger and blue on my QF TK.
