Troubleshooting Jumpy Scrolling IssueHey @CharlesBelov I've seen similar jumpy scrolling before — it usually happens when dynamic elements (like sidebars or comment boxes) load asynchronously, changing the layout height while you're scrolling. A few things you could check or try while GitHub investigates:1. Disable smooth scrolling temporarily in Firefox
2. Try GitHub in a private window or with all extensions disabledSince ad blockers, dark mode managers, or accessibility add-ons can modify layout behavior. 3. Capture diagnostic informationIf you can, capture a short screen recording and post it here or link to a gist with your console logs (F12 → Console tab). It might help GitHub identify which element triggers the loop. Hope this helps |

Body
When I am viewing an issue that is taller than my browser window, there are random points where the page or the right pane starts jumping up and down and up and down continuously until I scroll up or down on my own. This is distracting and can potentially make me feel ill as my eyes try to track it. It doesn't happen constantly, just randomly, so I can't necessarily reproduce it reliably, but it does recur.
Please fix. Using Firefox 143.0.4 and macOS 26.0.1, but it happened on earlier versions of Firefox and macOS as well.
Ideally your motion setting would also apply to any auto-scrolling that GitHub does.
