Hi all, Just wanted to hopefully help anyone who is having a very slow and unresponsive Quicksilver experience: if you have Karabiner Elements installed, try uninstalling it and restarting.
I was getting very frustrated with Quicksilver being slow and extremely unresponsive, including sometimes missing keystrokes right after I would hit the trigger hotkey if i didn't wait for the QS interface to pop up (which was taking a long time). After some troubleshooting I discovered that the culprit was Karabiner Elements (an open source keyboard customization app) that I had running to customize the F-keys on my 2014 MacBook Pro. After uninstalling Karabiner and rebooting (Warning: after uninstallation my built-in keyboard stopped working entirely until I rebooted), QS was back to its zippy, reliable self that I remember fondly, and have sworn by since I started using it on a Powerbook G4 back in 2005. Yay! My system: MacBookPro11,3 (2014, 15"), macOS 10.13.6, Quicksilver 1.6.0, Karabiner-Elements 12.1.0 But I'm guessing it would be the case on other configurations also, because I have been experiencing it for a while, slowly getting worse. best, Arvid arvidtomayko.com -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Quicksilver" group.
