Yeah. We have bug 1568722 open about this, and like you say it's blocked on hold gestures being backported to GTK 3. It would be great if that happened; as I mentioned in [this comment](https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gtk/-/merge_requests/3454#note_1427920), we only need a backport of the GDK layer of hold gestures, not the whole thing. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to mutter in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1922047 Title: Touchpad scrolling is too fast Status in Mozilla Firefox: Confirmed Status in GTK+: Fix Released Status in Mutter: New Status in firefox package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in gtk+3.0 package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in gtk4 package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in mutter package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: This is an issue which has troubled me for a while. Anecdotally, scrolling feels way too fast in GNOME on Wayland compared to on X11. I finally tested it semi-scientifically, and it seems like GNOME on Wayland scrolls almost exactly 1.5x faster than GNOME on X11. I tested this by testing how many lines are scrolled from a full two- finger touchpad swipe from the bottom of my touchpad to the top of my touchpad, and logged a few attempts in both X and Wayland. I kept track of the results in this spreadsheet: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/17EaBM5Pgt7GdnnzcN2Vchk4kfT7IZ6i4qZ0zpVRGLhc/edit?usp=sharing I scrolled in one of my own GTK applications (https://github.com/mortie/lograt) because it lets me easily see how many lines I scrolled. Attach is a video of one full scroll on X11 and one full scroll on Wayland. This testing was performed on a Dell XPS 13 9343, but I've also used Ubuntu on a Dell XPS 9575 where GNOME Wayland scrolling also feels way too fast. I don't have other hardware to test on. This has been an issue on both Ubuntu 20.10 and Ubuntu 21.04.
