difficult to type quickly on the macbook pro 2021?

I'm a pretty fast typist, but the macbook pro 2021 keyboard is slowing me down.

I'm making all kinds of mistakes that I normally never make, especially when typing quickly. Examples are - typing on keys but they don't appear on the screen, or the letter x showing up when I have NOT pressed x , but maybe didn't press the S key hard enough? I am constantly having to fix many many typos, and I usually have very few. For example, i typed few but it appeared as fewd.

Does anyone else have this problem?

In all honesty yours is the first report I have heard on the M1 keyboard...


The 2016-2019 butterfly keyboards were the real issue... a plenty


Late 2019 16" introduced the new 'magic " keyboard ( the old scissors mechanism w/ improvements)

here I can actually type faster(!) and love it.
