 QMK supports multiple debounce algorithms through its debounce API.
 
-The underlying debounce algorithm is determined by which matrix.c file you are using.
-
 The logic for which debounce method called is below. It checks various defines that you have set in rules.mk
 
 ```

+**Regarding split keyboards**:
 The debounce code is compatible with split keyboards.
 
 # Use your own debouncing code
 * Set ```DEBOUNCE_TYPE = custom ```.
 * Add ```SRC += debounce.c```
-* Add your own ```debounce.c```. Look at included ```debounce_sym_g.c```s for sample implementations.
+* Add your own ```debounce.c```. Look at current implementations in ```quantum/debounce``` for examples.
 * Debouncing occurs after every raw matrix scan.
 * Use num_rows rather than MATRIX_ROWS, so that split keyboards are supported correctly.
 
 # Changing between included debouncing methods
 You can either use your own code, by including your own debounce.c, or switch to another included one.
 Included debounce methods are:
-* debounce_eager_pk - debouncing per key. On any state change, response is immediate, followed by ```DEBOUNCE_DELAY``` millseconds of no further input for that key
-* debounce_sym_g - debouncing per keyboard. On any state change, a global timer is set. When ```DEBOUNCE_DELAY``` milliseconds of no changes has occured, all input changes are pushed.
+* eager_pk - debouncing per key. On any state change, response is immediate, followed by ```DEBOUNCE_DELAY``` millseconds of no further input for that key
