Continuing the discussion from Latest Update Scroll Issue :
I don’t know if it’s just me but the latest update of the Brave Browser snap on Linux(Ubuntu) has introduced a bug where scrolling is very slow when you use the mouse scroll wheel.
To reproduce the bug, just open the browser and try to scroll through a long page using the mouse scroll wheel. It is very slow!
[Brave 1.85.111 (Official Build) (64-bit)]
Chromium: 143.0.7499.40

### Description
With the recent update to `v143.1.85.111`, scrolling with touch… pad feels more "adaptive": it speeds up with each subsequent motion — but scrolling with a single motion feels 10x slower (it scrolls like 3 lines of text from one edge of touchpad to the other). Other Chromium browsers and other utilities didn't change their behavior, and my config didn't change since the update of Brave.
### Steps to reproduce
Open a tall webpage and scroll with touchpad's 2-finger gesture.
### Actual result
Scrolls 10x slower than before the update. Too slow to be a sensible default.
### Expected result
Normal scroll speed, equivalent to other browsers, other software in general, and the previous version of Brave.
### Reproduces how often
Easily reproduced
