Ask HN: Do you experience scroll issues in Google Chrome?

I am experiencing a weird scroll issue in Google Chrome where scroll downs are not properly registered after reaching the top of a scroll container and was wondering if this affects more users. I am able to reproduce this issue on multiple sites and even Spotify app on macOS which uses the chromium engine under the hood.

e.g. https://www.mintscan.io/dydx/proposals

1. place the cursor in the scroll container and try not to move it 2. scroll a bit down and then FAST up a few times until you reach the top 3. now try to scroll down slowly

The scroll down events in step 3 are often not registered and therefore no scroll is happening. Only after moving the cursor I am able to make Google Chrome accept the scroll down events again. I noticed this issue happens on child element scroll containers and probably not an issue on body.

Does it do it in other browsers? If it’s also doing it in Spotify desktop, could potentially be your mouse.

Safari and Firefox work fine

Different issue in Chrome scroll, probably not related. Win 10,32 bit,any of last dozens of updates to chrome if that matters. Open chrome. Left mouse click All Bookmarks. Tap up arrow key to scroll to the bottom of long list. Begin to slide mouse down off All Bookmarks into that list to get to the bottom of that list. And the list of bookmarks vertically scrolls a few or half a dozen lines so the last few or half dozen lines are now hidden. But, giving them credit, they did fix an introduced behavior where deleting a bookmark or moving a bookmark into a bookmark folder would repaint the whole bookmark list and scroll you back to the top of the list. That has now been fixed and the list of bookmarks no longer scrolls when I move or delete a bookmark. Thank you for that.

Are you using any sort of 3rd-party macOS app that changes scroll behavior (like UnnaturalScrollWheels) or anything like that?

I was able to consistently replicate it with a wheeled mouse with that app enabled (which I use to invert scrolling and disable macOS scroll acceleration on wheeled mice). Once I turned off the app, it no longer happened.

I also tried it with a Magic Mouse (which uses touch scrolling instead of a wheel) and the issue did not occur, even with the app running.
