Scroll bounce effect (end of scroll effect)

A few versions ago I encountered a problem with FF on Android - whenever I scroll a page, a bounce effect appears on two sides regardless of whether the end of page was reached or not. Video example: https://youtu.be/gLUFClY3Pd4

I already tried completely removing and reinstalling Firefox, disabling all extensions (even though I have only uBlock), but neither helped.

My device is Samsung Galaxy A5 2017 on Android 7.0 with latest available updates.

Is there anything I can do to fix this or I should report it as a bug to Bugzilla?

Hi

You can certainly report this at Bugzilla and thank you for posting that video (recommend you include it in your bug report).

I think that the issue may be linked to Samsung's display environment and may not be to do with Firefox, but a bug report will see this looked into in much more depth by the developers.

Hi,

I had exact the same problem. I solved it by going to about:config and set apz.overscroll.enabled to false.

Hope it helps you too.

This only disables the bounce effect.

I already posted a bug report on Bugzilla, however there is already one dated 4 months ago and still no fix (even seems like there won't be one in the nearest future).
