There are certain page positions where my iPad pro gets confused about the layout, and it redraws many times per second in different layouts. @dstrauss and @Desertlap also noticed flickering issues. Below is what I’m seeing. For me it happens mostly when panning slowly, I think near the end of a thread. @Hifihedgehog is this a known Discourse issue?
Example:
Same on my iPad mini 6. A quick touch that slightly moves the page stops it.
Add me to the list on my SP8…sometimes very difficult to get it to stop and sometimes restarts shortly after moving the cursor a bit to get it to stop.
I have the same, on an older regular iPad. I thought it was showing it’s age.
I personally have never seen it on Edge on my Surface Pro 8, and I do not have an iPad. I have never seen it on Safari on my iPhone.
I have seen the flickering on my Pro X using Edge. Ha ha. It just flickered as I posted this.
Weird. I just connected on multiple Windows 11 machines with Edge and could not replicate this behavior. I am guessing it may be a lingering caching issue from the updates yesterday. Try refreshing the browser session and seeing if it remains, I guess?
Still there. As soon as I try to scroll up in this thread, it flickers. Here is a video of it.

That’s so weird. I know everyone here definitely has it, but I am at a loss at how to even reproduce it. I tried both the Windows 11 thread and this one and it doesn’t show up on either my Surface or my work laptop.
This could be a clue, it looks related to the layout width:
(iPad Pro Safari)
If I scroll to the end, the flickering stops because the post section settles on a width (less the post counter width on the bottom right). As soon as I scroll back up, the browser gets confused and rapidly switches the width between the two values.
I wonder if there’s some threshold window width below which it tries to render in"narrow layout". Maybe that threshold is very close to a common window width, and there’s a rounding error happening? Just guessing.
You could be on to something, trying it in landscape and I don’t the see the issue.
I think I got it. It’s related to the ‘scroller widget’ not showing up:
So when you get flickering: switch to landscape, tap the post counter on the bottom right, tap again to close the bottom pane, now switch back to portrait.
Voilà, scroller widget stays and no width/flicker issues.
That’s it. Portrait triggers it for me. I am not sure how to get rid of this behavior, however. I am initiating an update in the hope of it fixing itself.
No go. I’ll respond when it is fixed.
Seems to be fixed for me.
It is! The issue comes down to the DiscPage plugin we use going cattywampus, but it is actively supported, I have disabled it in the meantime and reported the issue, and it should be fixed in short order.
Indeed. Our QA/response team puts most IT departments to shame. 
me as well, smooth as butter this afternoon 
@here, I have reenabled the problematic plugin DiscPage that was causing the flickering snafu. Let me know if you all are get flickering again with this plugin now reenabled.
