What happened?

When using the hand gesture to swipe the sidebar in the browser, it unexpectedly switches 2-3 spaces at once. The expected behavior is that a single swipe should change only one space at a time, not multiple. This issue makes it difficult to navigate the sidebar accurately, as it skips over spaces.
