The razer account thing is absolutely ridiculous, I agree. What is worse is it keeps trying to update and has broken more than once (I have a keyboard too, and both were set up with different versions of synapse and I don’t want to have to redo my config).

If they go bankrupt or if I lack a net connection, the hardware stops working. Super annoying.

As for the Tartarus keys sticking - was that because it had membrane keys? Or was it software? The orbweaver has mechanical and is the main reason I bought it over the Tartarus.

I think it is software, or at least it can be fixed in software. Which is what makes it so frustrating.

My workaround is to configure the whole thing as a joystick then use JoyToKey to convert it back to keyboard inputs. No stuck keys.
