I spend 2-3 days around the holidays to revive an old HP laptop with a Debian desktop distribution. I had problems with hibernation / suspend, but what was the show stopper for me was that there is still no smooth scrolling on Linux. [1]

- dmos62 8y agoPersonally, I wouldn't spend time setting smooth scrolling up, not to mention implementing it. I doesn't seem to have much impact to my reading. The scrollable things I use is the browser and a PDF reader. Firefox scrolls smoothly, while the PDF reader doesn't, but my experience reading with both is about the same. So I sympathize with devs who put their time into solving other problems. I'd be interested in hearing from people who feel the opposite.
- polkadotted 8y agoI disable smooth scrolling everywhere. I find it slow and distracting.
- bauerd 8y agoApplication devs shouldn't have to implement smooth scrolling. The DE should, and make it toggleable on a per-application basis.
