Description

### Steps to reproduce

I joined a room with a lot of scrollback over a short period (I reckon < 1 week). I tried to scroll to the top to read the whole thing, but I got stuck in a "scroll loop" - continuing to scroll upwards (with the mouse wheel, or interacting with the scrollbar) would scroll up a bit, glitch as if it were loading more content, then actually drop me further down (in the future) in the timeline so I saw the same fragments of conversation over and over.

I don't seem to be able to get to the top of the room.
