Why does Facebook start scrolling the screen opposite to the direction I'm scrolling?

Scrolling on my Facebook news feed will work fine for a short period, but as I move down my feed, the page will jump up or down, often in the opposite direction I'm scrolling the page. This even happens when I'm not actively touching the screen, but most often while scrolling. This makes it very difficult to read posts or interact with the page. Is this an issue with Meta or is there a setting I can change that will make scrolling smoother? This is a long running problem with Facebook and Firefox and I don't see the same behavior with other browsers like Vivaldi.
