Comment on How do I avoid enshitification of my keyboard and mouse
zod000@lemmy.ml 2 months agoIf you have chattering, that is sadly a problem with the specific switch itself and the software has just been ignoring the issue. I don’t suppose the keyboard you’re using is hotswappable? If it is, just pull and replace those switches. If not, you either need to desolder the bad switches and resolder in replacements or stick with that software. I have had some consistently bad chattering issues with Gateron switches to the point that I completely avoid them as a manufacturer. So if you coincidentally are using switches from them and plan to replace them, I’d look for a different brand of switch.

I’ll look more into it again someday. Once I found a program that effectively filtered it I stopped digging. But I think it’s Windows only. I don’t remember.
The switches were HALO Clear or something like that.

Well, if your keyboard is hotswappable and you have any spare switches, it could be a quick fix as long as you know which switches/keys are chattering and you have leftovers. I don’t know who (Mass)drop had actually manufacture the Halo Clear switches, it could be Gateron, but I don’t think they made that information public.
