Created attachment 461481 [details] Video of the bug. Follow the cursor closely The issue I'm having is with the MacBook Pro 14 When clicked or hovered on a hyperlink the cursor jumps 1-3cm out of place and then snaps back Infos: - MacOS 12.5 (21G72) on MacBook Pro 14 Base Model - Using built-in display with "More Space" in Display Preferences - Using built-in touchpad Reproduction: - go to old.reddit.com, select a random post and try to hide/show comments Observations: - Has something to do with the cursor changing between states, particularly pointer and hand - Doesn't seem to happen on Chrome or other apps - Not noticeable when Refresh Rate is set to 60 - Tried rebooting and making new user account. Didn't try to reinstall macOS yet

Another observation: I enabled "Tap to click" in the Settings and there is no jumping when tapping As far I can tell the issue is not hardware-related

I cannot reproduce this, but (1) I'm on the original M1 MacBook Pro, and (2) old.reddit.com looks very different for me than on this video. Seems unlikely to be a WebKit issue though. Could you please report it to Apple via https://feedbackassistant.apple.com?

(1) You need ProMotion Display for the bug to work (2) I have assembled a better demonstration. Here: https://jsfiddle.net/8yeajm9c/2/ (3) I too believe this is a macOS bug. But, it happens more often on Safari than on any other browser. The reason (I think) is because on Safari, when I click on a hyperlink it changes cursor from hand to pointer (which is what triggers the bug in first place), while on Firefox or Chrome it stays a hand

Thank you! FWIW, my Mac with ProMotion is on macOS Ventura beta, and I cannot reproduce there either. But let's have the right team take a look. Closing as a non-WebKit issue. I will watch what happens to the Apple feedback report, and re-open if this is determined to be a WebKit bug. rdar://98501663
