If you ever struggled with Caps Lock on macOS, that’s because Apple added a safety delay on it. Which is much longer than time between typical keypresses

@nikitonsky I never found Caps Lock useful so I remapped it to Switch Language. It still can work as Caps Lock when pressed with Shift. As far as I can tell there’s no delay for the combination.

@pointlessone people were saying there is still a delay if you remap it, but if not, then it’s much better. Caps Lock on its own is pretty useless, of course

@nikitonsky ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Maybe I just wasn't mad enough that I needed to yell at someone on the internet to notice that there's like 10 ms delay to engage Caps Lock.
