User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Ubuntu; Linux x86_64; rv:109.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/112.0
Steps to reproduce:
Scroll on a website.
Actual results:
Scrolling smoothly interpolates between the same "scrollpoints" as turning off "Smooth scroll" stops at. Scrolling also requires significant "activation energy" before moving between "scrollpoints". See attached screencapture.
Before today the scrolling was actually smooth. I have not changed anything, I've tried updating to the latest verstion (112.0) and creating a new empty profile.
Expected results:
Scrolling should be smooth.

The Bugbug bot thinks this bug should belong to the 'Core::Panning and Zooming' component, and is moving the bug to that component. Please correct in case you think the bot is wrong.

Thanks for the bug report. Do you have general.smoothScroll=false set?
I'm a little bit embarrassed to say the issue seems to have fixed itself. I never had general.smoothScroll=false set and surveyed about:config for other options that seemed related to smooth scrolling but found nothing weird.
Could it have been a temporary hardware issue where firefox decided that my computer could would not handle smooth scrolling?
