Review Summary
Linux Scroll Speed Fix is praised for effectively resolving slow scrolling issues on various Linux distros and Chromium browsers, offering an easy and unobtrusive fix. It particularly benefits users on Ubuntu, Mint, Pop OS, and others, with customization options for scroll speed. However, multiple users report inconsistent performance on some distros like Mint and Fedora, choppy or jerky scrolling, excessive touchpad speed, and occasional scrolling blockage. Despite some limitations, it remains a valuable tool for Linux users suffering from slow or inconsistent scrolling in their browsers.
