2020 Drop Alt Key stuttering?

more_vert
Hi there, I recently acquired a Drop Alt keyboard this year (2020), and I recently notiiced that sometimes I get key stutters when typing the letter "I" (I left the one intentionally in this post because it just happened as I wrote this). I tested this by pressing only that key and space and managed to get a stutter within an iinterval of spaces (happened again). Has anyone else experiienced this (again)? Any ideas? This happens on multiple computers so its not specific to an OS. I remember this this happening with another key as well but I clearly use it less often and noticed iit (again) less.

My "i" key does the same thing and thought I was just hitting it perfectly were it misfires. It doesn't really do it alot but it does happen. What switch are you using? (Just curious)

JoeyJokerzI think they are gateron clears? Whatever came with the alt. So far reseating fixed it.
Have you tired using a different switch in that position? Or cleaning out the hot swap socket? You can try reflashing the board, there might be a firmware update.

It started happening again. Could it be a defective switch? Defective board?
