Anyone else in the community use a USB switch to share Mouse and Keyboard between Xim and PC?

I still have a USB switch hooked up to the Azeron to swap it from XIM to PC. I’m also still using IOGear USB switches with independent 5V USB power, which have been relatively bulletproof for many years now.I think all of these USB switches are the same with different branding for the most part, unless they have advanced features like emulation or packet sniffing for keyboard control etc.
What I do run into very frequently is Xbox disliking USB hot-swapping, which requires a XIM reboot. This happens every time I boot the Xbox, but I don’t tend to swap during a gaming session. PS seems more flexible in this regard, possibly because of the controller reauth pings every 8 mins.I'm using Xim on PC actually, but it wouldn't matter. I'm never disconnecting my Xim from the 'console' and don't want to. I'd like to leave it plugged in at the back with the cables managed away, which is why this is such a headache for me.
Does the XIM LED go white or yellow when this happens?No, nothing happens with the Xim besides it not taking any new USB devices. Controller still works, manager still works, devices that were always plugged-in still work (I tried with a second mouse left in the hub). It's only new devices, it will not take any until power cycled. This leaves me to believe the USB host in the Xim firmware has some USB enumeration limit or something, which in my mind is a bug (the same way in windows I thought it was a bug, and it seems to be fixed now).
Would you like your account renamed instead? I've heard back that this will change your name in quote headers too. If so what name would you like?My account has already been renamed, and it did not change my quoted name in my threads, which is what is popping up. I think the only solution is to delete the threads I've started where people quote me the most.
We can delete the account too but your name will still be quoted.
The problem is the quotes rather than your own posts. Unless they're manually cleaned on a per-post basis, you're stuck with it :/99% of the quotes are on threads I started, 80% of them probably on my fortnite building scripts. Those are the posts that are on the first page when my username is googled.
Deleting posts from your account should be viable, but I don't know how effective this will be without manually pruning all of the quotes that include your username. That stuff won't magically erase.The username is linked to my gamebattles, CMG, UMG, steam, email, and irl name and all the accounts that come with it. I want to maintain what I've built on all of those and my relationships with people I play with and continue to grow them, while erasing my naive use of that name on this forum.
Wouldn't it be easier to just start a new PSN or XBL account?
