> Can the mouse scroll speed be configured in KDE, nowadays? Unfortunately KDE has gone full stupid in this regard. From the numerous bug reports, I think they decided that you can't please everyone so they should please nobody. Scroll speed is not deterministic to humans, who are not calculators. The intuitive thing is to scroll a consistent a amount per wheel tick. They used to do this but now it's a percentage of the content so sometimes it scrolls 14 lines and sometimes it scrolls 8. I guess the behavior is different in Wayland because "x11 is dead" therefore only breaking changes make it into the x11 version. Some day they'll make the x11 version suck as bad as Wayland and then people will make the right choice. /s I'd be a bit less salty if I wasn't being asked to chose between two different sets of broken. I need LibreOffice to work so I'm using x11.

What are the problems with Wayland and libreoffice?

  Clicking a button from the tool bar that shows a popup of some type (e.g. color chooser) doesn't display the popup. I'm not asking for an exotic behavior. No it's not NVIDIA's fault because I have no such hardware.

  ... yeah, what? If the content is really, really long, is it possible to scroll the mouse wheel one click and have it skip part of the content because "1%" (or whatever increment it is) is longer than what fits on the screen?
