Anything is fine really. Don't overthink it, just look at the temp it melts at. DIP you're way less likely to cook a chip anyway.
imho worrying about solder overmuch is like worrying about the specific type of nail in a carpentry project. Unless you're an expert or working at the edge of tolerances then it wont affect the final product much.
As credentials: I have handwired 2 keyboards and built an led cube. A good iron and rosin flux will do 90% of the work. Your only remaining job is to set the temp right, grow 3 arms to align stuff, and briefly touch the iron to pin.
