From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Is there any way to fix this issue, Or any other method to fix the chattering issue on Ubuntu. I tried bounce key - not quite good.

Does installing python3-libevdev help?
You need to install Python package dependencies. pip install -r requirements.txt is the simplest way to do it, but that unfortunately installs the packages globally. May be wise to use a virtual environment.
Would pip install --user -r requirements.txt not be OK, too? I understand it's not as isolated as a virtual environment, but it's easy.
Use pipx.
It needs to be installed globally or as root, as the script runs under root. Pip does not like being run with different permissions or as different users not at all tho.
This script has two python modules as requirements, libevdev and inquirer. If you want to run the script with your systemwide python environment, you can try to find the relevant APT packages (often named python-MODULENAME) to install the modules on your system.
Alternatively you can create a python virtual environment (you can easily find howtos) and install the requirements in the virtual environment using the pip tool. This way, the requirements will be installed for this project only.
Also keep in mind to never use pip as sudo, it should not manage your systemwide python modules because it will conflict with your package manager.
Use pipx.
Oh and good luck regarding your transition from windows to Ubuntu. I see that you had different issues for your first time, it can be though sometimes but keep going you will eventually get yourself confortable and understand new things on how it works. You will not regret it
You should copy the console text and post it as a code block on your post. Not only is this easier to read, it's searchable for others, and more accessible-friendly, too.
On the Github page you linked it says under Installation: "Clone the repository and install the required dependencies enlisted in requirements.txt."
It seems like you didnt do that...
