You'll probably have the same issue with any Firefox fork. It works fine for me, but I have pretty low standards I guess.

No. It's horribly hideous on Mull and not bad on either Firefox or Fennec.

I hate to be that person, but it's completely fine for me. Then again, I use Firefox on my old phone (Moto G) and Mull on my new phone (Pixel 8), so maybe it impacts certain models more than others? Both seem totally fine to me, with Mull on the Pixel being more pleasant due to better hardware.

I'm on a Pixel 8 myself. Compare scrolling on Mull and Firefox. I can't believe you won't notice. But if you do, you won't be able to unsee it

I just tried Fennec and Mull from F-Droid on the wikipedia main page (clicked English), and they're both about the same. I'm also on GrapheneOS with no Google Play services installed, so maybe you're seeing something I'm not.

I absolutely do see it on my Pixel 8. I went back to Firefox before because it bothered me so much. That said, I prefer everything Mull offers otherwise so I'm trying it as my default browser one more time.
