To be honest, it's the main thing that makes me *not* use gwibber everyday.
Every time I launch it this scrolling behaviour disappoints me, and I just go
back to twitter.com where I can have "normal" scrolling.
The current scrolling behaviour makes tweets "jump" up and down, and I can't
get my eyes to track tweets when scrolling, so I get lost in my tweets, without
knowing were I was before scrolling a little bit.
However the idea of such a scrolling behaviour isn't stupid at all, but
it's a bit hard to get accustomed to, and it isn't consistent with any
other application.
(this scrolling behaviour is even worst since gwibber is at roughly 100%
CPU when scrolling)

Title:
Gwibber "Smooth scrolling"
Status in Gwibber:
Confirmed
Status in “gwibber” package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
Trying to read down my list of posts in Gwibber is very difficult
because of a number of bugs. The one I'm reporting here is using the
scrollbar to scroll through the list is in no way smooth and skips in
big jumps. The effect is I cannot read while scrolling, and because
it jumps so jarringly quickly I don't know if I have missed any posts.
We need to implement smooth scrolling.
