Never encountered this, same platforms. What do you mean by broken?

If I were to guess I think it has something to do with “smooth scrolling”. The behavior is scroll the mouse wheel three clicks/times to move the page.

Expected behavior is move the wheel at all and the page moves.

Also on a track pad the page should move in sync with your fingers. It doesn’t in Firefox.

That’s what happens on a clean install on Windows or MacOS. You might want to reset any custom settings and remove any extensions to see if it still reproduced.

It does just fine for me on GNU/Linux.
