I was looking for a new USB-c hub and came across this article. It’s an interesting write-up of what is on the inside of some popular options

    just because the brand could be trusted

    You’ll take your $200+ gaming mouse that has a 90% chance to have a double click issue because we can save $0.02 per mouse by using cheaper switches, that’ll force you to get multiple replacements through warranty (if it hasn’t expired yet), and you’ll like it!

    - Logitech

    Meanwhile, my OG G502 mouse from 2013~ is still working perfectly almost 10 years later.

      It’s still working? The engineer must’ve fucked up on the built in 5000000 click failure trigger

      Went through three of those damn mice and every single one did that click doubling thing eventually. One didn’t even last a year.

      I too gave up and plugged in my ancient 502 and have been using it for two years now on top of its original run of like seven years with no issues.

      Logitech sucks.

      Holy shit, I am experiencing this issue right now and didn’t know it was a common problem.
