So as the title says, I have some weird issues with Brave & Vivaldi where the scrolling feels weird, as if it is scrolling in 60hz and not 144hz for some reason. I do not have this issue with Firefox.
I am using i3 with picom.
This doesn’t really bother me if no one knows how to fix this because I don’t mind using Firefox + I’ve just ordered 6700 XT (currently using RTX 2070 SUPER) and will be switching to something like sway or maybe back to some DE and if I’d have to guess I won’t have this issue, because I didn’t have this issue while I was using KDE or GNOME.
You could try disabling hardware acceleration, animations, or smooth scrolling for either browser. The fact that it is only affecting chrome based browsers is odd. Was it ever working properly? Because it could be from a package update also.
Well I installed i3 like 4 days ago and before that was using kde on just arch and had no issues. Never really had this on any distro & doubt that this is only on endeavour because this is pretty much just arch with some preinstalled stuff.
I’ll try disabling those things and see what happens.
Also never used the zen kernel so maybe that could cause this somehow?
You could certainly switch off zen and see if that helps. I would start with the simple stuff first, though.
EDIT: I just happened upon this by pure coincidence. It looks like there may be a bug upstream.
Yep, using nvidia here. If AMD solves the issue, that will be the last straw for me and nvidia.
Planning on getting a Tuxedo laptop next year, but thinking I should avoid nvidia if I can, because I’ve been having issues only nvidia users seem to have, though it’s not all nvidia users - just a fraction.
