Scrolling is laggy when mouse is hovering over messages, smooth when hovering over blank area

Title -- this also happens for the channel list. Is there an easy fix for this?
Interesting. Are you scrolling using a touchpad? Do you know if your application is rendering via Cairo (software) or OpenGL (hardware)? You should be able to check that via Ctrl + Shift + I, in the Global menu.
Yes, I am scrolling with a touchpad.
It mainly happens in fullscreen when in a channel with a lot of embeds/images.
Here's a screenshot of the first section under "Global":

This kind of effect also occurs in GNOME Files? So maybe it's an upstream issue. Or maybe my computer is just slow.

Hm, that is interesting.
I do not know if it is an upstream issue, but in any case, scrolling like this with mouse hovering should not lag like this, even on relatively under-powered hardware.
If I can get my hands on a slower device than the one I currently use, I will try it, but no guarantees.
If I have to guess, it's the hover background transition. I'll see if I can experiment with it.
