Razer fags, how are you coping with all this bloat? this is insane.
and why does their hardware need TWO apps running for just to change colors and remember a few profiles?

you should check your Razer App folder at AppData\Local\Razer\RazerAppEngine\User Data
because mine was 3GB in size, yes three fucking gig. this trash is beyond shit.

I am not making excused for Razer and their inability to manage diodes efficiently, but what I see in that image is a symptom of shitty Windows management. They failed to figure out an appropriate way to deal with multiple CPUs.

If the same thing happened on Linux, would you say the same thing about Linux?

set the settings you want, uninstall all of the slop (probably worth checking autoruns as well), then install openrgb

Absolutely, and I am sure it does. I know web-browsers on both platforms are treated in a similar manner, with dozens of processes. I should have said OS in a general sense instead of Windows. GNU+Linux is shit just like Windows and Macintosh. I won't argue about which is better, but I will argue that software has been left behind by hardware.

At least you're not a cultist. Guess who's the biggest contributors to all 3 of those operating systems? If you guessed Indians, you'd be correct.

No big surprise there. There has been an effort to enshitify the world in order to rebuild it, but garbage in means garbage out.

the "non gamer" peripherals are missing basic features I use every day like easily rebindable keys and macros

don't fall for the peripheral troonism, there's no more
>it just werks
option available right now. Not like 10-20 years ago when Ducky, Das, Cooler Master, Rosewill, etc. were making solid mechs that lasted decades and mice that lasted more than a year. Buy a K120 and a cheap mouse and get used to it.

I blame retarded consumers like always, take a look at <popular online retailer in your country> (like amazon). It's full of stupid chink shit from word salad ali express brands. Dogshit quality but hey at least I can consoooooooom

you don't need that and if you do then you're doing it wrong. Automate your work using scripts and use vim keybindings. At least until we get decent peripherals again but with the current level of consumerist hysteria I'm not sure about it. Like 10 years ago you could buy a cooler master, which was kind of a gamer shit keyboard (but made by filco) but it had macros, decent firmware, solid build and it'd last you a long time.
