Hi,

When scrolling long pages or lists in my Ubuntu phone it feels like that
the content is too "heavy" and hard to move up and down with a single
finger movement.

So, if - for example - you want to quickly scroll your twitter timeline
it really needs lots of gestures and movements in order to be able to
move between big chunks of tweets; and this is, honestly, quite annoying.

What I think is that the current default kinetic deceleration/friction
values are too strong, and thus it's impossible to just quickly swipe
the finger in order to get a quick scroll with a reasonable momentum, so
that it's not needed to swipe again in order to continue the scrolling
movement.

Has been there some user testing in order to find better values for
this? I think users coming from other platforms might find this an
unexpected behavior.
