Pudding keycaps

Has anyone fitted pudding keyaps to their mechanical keyboards?
I've swithering between just plain black keycaps from the manufacturer or getting the HyperX pudding keycaps.

My concern is that the RGB may be too bright. Some pictures for comparison that I took off a reddit thread.

Normal Keycaps

Puddings

I turn the lighting off on my keyboards to start with, that second picture would drive me up the wall.

That's my concern, I was advised to get them over standard but guess there must be a lot of light fans where I previously asked.
I usually have them on lowest settings if it is on.

You have to be careful with puddings, some of them simply don’t look great and it does depend on what LEDs the board uses.

Try to avoid getting pudding from aliexpress, most are pretty bad and cheap.

I didn't bother in the end, I just went for a set of standard glorious keycaps. If I were to get, I would have probably opted for the HyperX pudding caps.
