Scrolling up and down on this website, the top "progressive blur" was annoying: too strong in the vertical expansion, on too small an area in the height used.

It also had noticable lag on my Pixel 6 Pro, which while not super new, isn't exactly a low-end device.

  The performance is terrible for me too and I'm using last year's Snapdragon flagship, it feels like it's dropping to something like 15-20fps when scrolling. God help anyone trying to read this on a lower end device.

    It is readable but painful on my 7 year old mid-range Android phone.

    Silky smooth on both a two year old Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 (Xiaomi 12) using both Chrome and Firefox and on a iPhone Pro Max 15 using Safari. Might be some other problem with your phone?

      It seems the issue is specific to Firefox for me, if I switch over to Chrome it's perfectly smooth. Strange that Firefox works fine for you on a slightly older version of the same platform.

        Actually realized I was using Firefox Focus on that Snapdragon 8 Gen 1. Just downloaded Firefox to try it and it's also the same as Firefox Focus...no issue. Could it be an extension? Fwiw, I don't have any extensions installed on any of the browsers.

  Works fine in Safari on my iPhone, too. Curious if Apple is doing something in hardware.

    they mostly make it overpowered, iphone processors are a couple years ahead most android flagships for the average non-gamer your iphone is probably the most powerful computer they own

      The obly aspect they are consistently ahead is single thread performance compared to Snaodragon. GPU has been behind for a few gens.

        Right, this is changing gradually but single thread performance is still king on the web.
