Request for Assistance with Backdrop Filter and Animation Issue in Firefox

Dear Firefox Support Team,

I am writing to seek assistance with a technical issue I've encountered while implementing a backdrop filter and animation on a navigation bar.

To provide some context, I have incorporated a backdrop filter effect on our navigation bar, accompanied by a translateX animation to reposition it smoothly. However, when testing the website in Firefox, I have noticed a noticeable choppiness in the animation performance. This issue persists on both desktop and Android devices.

To help you better understand the problem, I have included a screenshot, so you can see the issue.

I would greatly appreciate any guidance or suggestions you may have on how to address this problem and improve the performance of the backdrop filter and animation in Firefox.

For your convenience, here are the relevant links:

Your expertise and support in resolving this matter would be invaluable to our project. Thank you in advance for your time and assistance.

Sincerely, Aram

Hi

I have just tried that site (very nice!) in Firefox for Android and it seemed to work fine.

Do you have any add-ons installed in Firefox for Android?

What level of enhanced tracking protection do you have set?

Hello Paul,

I appreciate your attention. I've made another attempt to install Firefox for Android without any add-ons and with various enhanced tracking protection settings, but the problem persists.

Just to clarify, what is the problem you are having?

The side menu opens and closes perfectly fine for me.

To help you understand the problem better, I've posted a video demonstrating the issue. The backdrop-filter doesn't seem to be working well when the menu bar is moving. Video: https://streamable.com/7q3wo6
