That seems like a display problem.

So I remembered reporting the double letter issue previously and there being a fix.  Here are some threads from MC24 where this was previously reported and fixed.  It seems to have become unfixed sometime in the intervening versions:

https://yabb.jriver.com/interact/index.php/topic,116364.0.html  (reporting the original problem with bob's commentary)
https://yabb.jriver.com/interact/index.php?topic=117727.0  (separate report noting that it brings up a diacritical window)

It looks like (based on the second thread) if you long press a key on JRiver for Windows you get a diacritical window, but on Linux just repeating a letter twice can trigger it?  I will note that it looks like back when the original issue occurred that typing two of the same letters one after the other in JRiver would always trigger the diacritical popup no matter how much time elapsed between letters.  Now it seems to only happen when you type the two letters very quickly one after the other.  Otherwise the issue presents the same way, so presumably the issue is related to the one back then?

Text entry into most fields is unreliable, for instance entering repeating characters causes issues with the text completion. Same when deleting characters (I select and delete now by habit). When it doesn't break, it's slow.
Copy-paste is unreliable from outside->inside MC and vice versa.
The modern tag editor is very slow, especially with multiple files selected.

+1 . Same problem for me on Fedora 40(Gnome/Cinnamon). This drawback forcing me to stay on Kodi in Fedora unlike Windows where i use both Kodi and JRiver .

JimH:
Try a different desktop.

Also if you're using Wayland, you'd probably have better luck using an X11 session instead. MC doesn't actually support Wayland though it runs more-or-less fine besides UI weirdness and small issues like dialog boxes appearing very small via XWayland.
