Facebook just started scrolling like crazy. I've recently updated to Ventura. It's really annoying, but all other websites are good.
Anyone else having uncontrollable erratic scrolling on Facebook news feed after upgrading to Ventura?
Anyone else having uncontrollable erratic scrolling on Facebook news feed after upgrading to Ventura?
I am having the same issue. Started before I updated my MacBook Air to Venture. Also experiencing the same issue on my old Mac Mini running Catalina and Safari 15.6.1. It has nothing to do with the Ventura update. A Facebook problem.
Here is another option.
In Safari settings, go to "Advanced".
Click the box that says "Show develop settings in menubar".
Now, in the new "Develop" menu, go to "User Agent" and change your user agent to an iPhone or iPad Safari user agent. Don't try any other user agent. Facebook won't allow those.
Scrolling in Facebook is at least for the moment working correctly using Safari. I went to the Develop Menu-User Agent (as mentioned earlier by another person)and chose Safari 16.2 and all is well. I don't know if that was the fix or whether Apple or Facebook fixed something but it works...
For the time being, I switched from Safari to Chrome and I no longer have the jumping Facebook problem.
It's got nothing to do with Ventura, it's a WebKit issue. FB fixed it this morning.
Yes. This just started happening with me too. Not completely verified, but I may have fixed it, at least for the last 10 minutes. Went to Safari settings and erased all history information, cookies, caches, etc. Then logged back onto Facebook, and the scrolling issue went away. We'll see if it lasts.
Use the recents tab of Facebook for now
Me too. First noticed it 01/15/2023. Have not had any similar problems using Chrome on MacBook Pro M2 with Ventura 13.1. So, this could be a unique interaction between Safari and FaceBook.
It's not just Ventura. It's happening all the way back to Mojave, Safari 14.
Using the recents view doesn't help - in fact once it's finished jumping around, the topmost 'recent' is from yesterday; newer posts I'd just started looking at have vanished.
I tried that , everybody should report to Facebook and Apple
I believe FaceBook is using some kind of background tracking but Safari on Ventura is making the tracking glitch.This is not happening in the other Facebook pages except the main site, not the recent page

I have had exact same issue. Facebook is not even functional. I have searched and tried every 'trick' I've read to no avail. I am furious that every time there is an update at Apple, I have major issues.
This has nothing to do with Apple. It's a bug on the Facebook site.

Should I report it to FB?
I am using Firefox till this gets fixed.
