The mouse buttons have been double clicking for a while and the wheel started to becoming sticky.
I finally took it apart and cleaned it as best as I could. It was mostly dust and some cat hair that wrapped itself around the wheel.
I couldn’t really get to the click mechanism but I got in between the button and the plastic. Not sure yet if it helped.

How long have you had your mouse? I’ve had mine for about 6 years.
I wonder if the rubber is also just beginning to degrade.
Oh, long time. Like, probably close to a decade. And it’s about the cheapest mouse I could find. The mouse wheel first broke probably within 6 months after I got it.
So if anything, the problem is probably just that it’s a super-cheap mouse.
Oh, haha nevermind then.
