I've just installed Interstellar and think it looks great. I've been using Jerboa and browser for Lemmy. The announcement of piefed.ca suggested this as a Piefed app, so here I am.

First impression is that I think I'm going to like it a lot - almost feels like RiF that I've been missing for some time. But - I'm finding scrolling really unpleasant - it's really jumpy, or jittery and hard to look at. I'm finding it so bad that I'm surprised it's not mentioned here or on GitHub, and I'm wondering if it's just me?

Version 0.9.3 on Android 15 on a Pixel 8 Pro.

Here's a short video showing Jerboa first and then Interstellar. It's hard to predict how this will play on your phone, but when I watch this full screen on my phone it makes both look worse than they actually are. In reality, Jerboa scrolls with zero jitter and Interstellar scrolls like Jerboa in the video.

I couldn't tell anything from the video, but I'll try to look around and see I'd other people have jitter problems with Flutter (Interstellar's UI framework).

I've made an issue for it on GitHub so we can track it: https://github.com/interstellar-app/interstellar/issues/207
