This bug might be relevant with bug 1977310, that one is not horizontal scrollbar, it's vertical though.

See Also: → 1977310

There's a:

.iLxK4c::-webkit-scrollbar {
    display: none;
}

Removing that makes the scrollbar appear in Chrome

Google folks say that this should be fixed by a change that they deployed -- Raul, can you still reproduce? If not, lets close this as fixed. Thanks!

It's still reproducible at this time.

hmm, I can reproduce too, yeah (just tested Firefox 142 in Windows 10 via BrowserStack) Looks just like the Firefox part of the screenshot in comment 1.

It looks like it's still from an element with class="iLxK4c" (which has overflow-x: scroll explicitly specified in their CSS).

If I add scrollbar-width:none to that element (which is the standard way to do the thing in comment 4), then the scrollbar goes away.

Just retested (in Firefox 142 on Win10, with traditional scrollbars), and I can't reproduce anymore. This might be fixed again -- Haik/Jeff/Raul, can any of you still reproduce?

Aha, I do see the CSS that we suggested (scrollbar-width: none) being used in the page's CSS:

.iLxK4c {
[...]
	overflow-x: scroll;
[...]
	scrollbar-width: none;
}

So it looks like they've (re?)-deployed the fix.

I think we can close this as FIXED by Google folks, but please reopen if you still see it.

I can no longer reproduce it on macOS. Works for me.

I can't reproduce anymore either.
