Description

On macOS minecraft already supports analog smooth scrolling which is native to all macOS apps. Judging by how it feels, this mod simulates smooth scrolling on top of macOS doing it which is not ideal in my opinion.

I've attached a short video demonstration of the difference between vanilla GUIs and this mod's config screen.

Research direction

No file, test, or entry point is identified in the issue. Start by locating the config screen's scrolling implementation and the platform-specific handling for macOS, then compare it with the attached vanilla-versus-mod demonstration. Done means simulated smooth scrolling is disabled on macOS while scrolling behavior remains correct on other platforms.
