Not sure if relevant but I’ve noticed in Hunt: Showdown I keep going too far in an item selector, but only when scrolling downwards. However it doesn’t happen outside of games (Xwayland issue?)

Just here to express my condolences

So does it not happen on X11?

Other than that, i have to clean my scrollwheel sensor once in a while, not because i’m disgusting, but because my current mouse has this issue, otherwise i get a similar experience as yours

maybe check firefox about:config settings, if it’s just firefox. it has some scroll settings like smooth scrolling etc.

I run into scrolling issues like these on both Wayland and X11 every now and then. Scroll events fail to get processed, sometimes scrolling only works in one direction, or scroll events get super delayed. Seems to have something to do with Firefox getting into some kind of weird state, but a reboot seems to be the only real solution.

I don’t think it’s a hardware issue because this doesn’t happen on Windows. I’ve given up looking for the cause, I assume it’s some kind of misconfiguration somewhere, or just one of those Linux bugs that no volunteer would ever delve deeply enough into to actually debug. It only happens once or twice and month and a reboot only takes a minute, so I’m not spending more time on this stuff. I’m sure it’ll disappear on its own through some random update down the line!
