Libreoffice scrolling with scrollbar is broken for qt5, qt6 and kf6 VCL plugins. I'm using Plasma desktop with Wayland. I've tried to enable/disable hardware acceleration and smooth scolling with no result. Comparison: Calligrawords(fully Qt) - scrolling is super fast and precise LibreOffice - qt5, qt6 and kf6 - grab scrollbar with a mouse and move it up and down. The result, sometimes choppy scrolling and sometimes after scrollbar changed position and it's either catching up or after some time instantly scroll to the new place. It's unusable. I've noticed that qt5 is a bit better but maybe it was my imagination. LibreOffice - gtk4 - it's way better than qt variants however still pretty choppy and laggy. LibreOffice - gtk3 - by far the best version. It doesn't feel as smooth and precise as Calligrawords but it's very close. Video demonstration - https://youtu.be/wlFdm6Fu8h8
It's a bit expected Calligra works very well on qt since it's developed for KDE. About gtk4, implementation of it in LO is in progress. For qt rendering, there's been lots of work made on 25.8 branch. On which Linux distrib are you? Perhaps you may give a try to a 25.8 version? Eg: on Debian testing, there's LO 25.8.1.1 available on Debian repo.

It's noticeably better for small scrolling(that didn't work with 25.2). If you scroll near 1 or 2 pages, basically slow scrolling. But it still fails when you need to scroll large portions, pretty choppy(better than before but still unusable, way below even gtk4 level).

On 25.8.2.1 version mouse scrolling stopped working though, similar behaviour to fast scrolling with the scrollbar.

Please see the discussion in tdf#152911 for further details. (The behavior different people experience seems to differ. In my own experience, it's usable without any further LibreOffice changes.)
