An unofficial chapter of the popular Dull Men's Club.
1. Relevant commentary on your own dull life. Posts should be about your own dull, lived experience. This is our most important rule. Direct questions, random thoughts, comment baiting, advice seeking, many uses of "discuss" rarely comply with this rule.
2. Original, Fresh, Meaningful Content.
3. Avoid repetitive topics.
4. This is not a search engine
Use a search engine, a tradesperson, Reddit, friends, a specialist Facebook group, apps, Wikipedia, an AI chat, a reverse image search etc. to answer simple questions or identify objects. Also see rule 1, “comment baiting”.
There are a number of content specific communities with subject matter experts who can help you.
Some other communities to consider before posting:
5. Keep it dull. If it puts us to sleep, it’s on the right track. Examples of likely not dull: jokes, gross stuff (including toes), politics, religion, royalty, illness or injury, killing things for fun, or promotional content. Feel free to post these elsewhere.
6. No hate speech, sexism, or bullying No sexism, hate speech, degrading or excessively foul language, or other harmful language. No othering or dehumanizing of anyone or negativity towards any gender identity.
7. Proofread before posting. Use good grammar and punctuation. Avoid useless phrases. Some examples: - starting a post with "So" - starting a post with pointless phrases, like "I hope this is allowed" or “this is my first post” Only share good quality, cropped images. Do not share screenshots of images; share the original image.

The mouse buttons have been double clicking for a while and the wheel started to becoming sticky.
I finally took it apart and cleaned it as best as I could. It was mostly dust and some cat hair that wrapped itself around the wheel.
I couldn't really get to the click mechanism but I got in between the button and the plastic. Not sure yet if it helped.

Nice! FYI, Logitech mice have a known defect in the switches that results in double-registering clicks. It's super annoying, they know about it, they have said they don't plan to fix it.
Hopefully, cleaning does the trick, but in case it doesn't it is not your fault.
They changed their switches out a few years ago. They haven't had as prevalent of a problem with double clicking since. It started with the Hero X models I think.
Oh, that's good to know!
Wow, that's interesting and also shitty. I might have to think twice about Logitech mice in the future.
I think I've had this mouse for ~6 years so I'd say it's paid for itself but I don't like when companies do planned obsolescence.
Thanks for letting me know!
