I’ll actually put the blame for this on Apple. The fact that the operating system is so hostile to power users and customization is the reason you have to have a third party application to get the scroll to work how you want and assign functions to mouse buttons in the first place.

The issues only impacted Mac users because macOS prevents certain applications from running if it doesn’t detect a valid Developer ID certificate, something that has affected other apps in the past.

Looks like it was the developer certificate required for it to run on MacOS that expired. Still inexcusable since Pepperidge Farm remembers when you configured peripherals through the driver options in the control panel.

That is some weird enshitification right there. Looks down at my 2012 G500 that recently got new mouse click actuators added to it by me. You’re doing just fine old friend! (It could use a new mouse wheel kit though.)
