RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 1928570

Details

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:140.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/140.0

Steps to reproduce:

Upgrade to firefox 140.0esr and try to scroll a page (either page down, spacebar or mouse wheel, the animation is everywhere).

I have the general.smoothScroll set to false (via the checkbox in the preferences).

However it seems to be ignored? I need to set general.smoothScroll.mouseWheel, general.smoothScroll.pages and maybe few more to get 128's behavior (respecting the smooth scrolling).

Actual results:

Smooth scrolling was active, leading to undesired animations.

Expected results:

Smooth scrolling was not active, leading to no animations.

The global switch (general.smoothScroll) should have been respected.

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.

Component: Untriaged → Panning and Zooming
Product: Firefox → Core

After some more testing, I realized this only happens with privacy.resistFingerprinting set to true.
