Try to hit your CAPS Lock button as if it’s a mistake and see what happens. Mine is reading my mind.

The difference between unintentional hit and an intentional one is very slight, but it knows :)

    Yes it is like that by default. I’ve found it annoying that sometimes I press Caps Lock and it doesnt turn on, so I’ve found an app called CapsLockNoDelay which prevents this from happening. So every time I press Caps Lock soft or hard, it works.

        Fun fact, caps lock lights on every keyboards is an OS thing, even off-brand plug in USB keyboards on Windows computers. The OS (or rather the keyboard driver somewhere) tells the keyboard to turn on the light.

      Holy shit thank you for this. The caps lock delay has been the one thing that has continually pissed me off as a lifelong Windows user who switched to Mac 3 years ago.

      I have developed the terrible habit of using the caps lock key instead of the shift key when I’m trying to capitalize at the beginning of a sentence. Definitely not efficient but I can be bothered to undo a habit that I’ve had for over a decade. This is going to save me so much frustration
