Yeah, it's seems they've added a debounce. I'd prefer to set it to 0ms as well. Do you remember how you removed it?

I followed this guide for modifying Electron apps.

https://github.com/jonmest/How-To-Tamper-With-Any-Electron-A...

Obsidian is not open source so it's minified and hard to read. But I was able to find the relevant code and just set the delay to 0.

(I'm away from computer now, I'll see if I can find the code later.)

What also helped is that all Electron apps are just Chromium so you can run the dev tools and the debugger! I think the hotkey is F12, and/or Ctrl+Shift+J.

it has been removed in Obsidian 1.4.2 https://obsidian.md/changelog/2023-07-31-desktop-v1.4.2/
I need this response too.
