Pretty much the title, I really don't want to get a headset either, I'm happy with my audio technica ath-m50x, I just don't like headset audio quality. Is there any solution for this? And I really can't seem to find a microphone adapter for pc in Netherlands... :c

You could get a modmic and put that on your m50x. Alternatively, you could invest in a mechanical keyboard using mx-cherry red keys. Reds are known for being very quiet. You could also get a blue yeti or snowball for directional sound.

There are no modmics in Netherland yet, and I really can't invest that much money on a yeti or something, I don't want really high quality mic either, just one to skype with friends, I have a mechanical keyboard with brown switches by the way.

If you already have brown switches you've basically got as quiet of a keyboard as possible without going to a quietpro. Unfortunately with regards to microphones, you have 2 options for eliminating background noise: headset mic or high quality stand mic.

You'll just have to put up with typing. Try adding push to talk if your typing becomes annoying to friends. I used a buckling spring keyboard for years with PTT, and pretty much never bothered anybody.
