Shimmering text while scrolling: just me?
Anyone ever see text shimmering / shaking on a web page while scrolling in Edge? It's very temperamental: once you scroll up and down, the shimmering stops. I thought it was my eyes, so I asked someo...

Is this issue still present in the latest version of Microsoft Edge Insider Build Dev Channel and the latest version of Windows?

v-gapart Sorry to say, this bug has returned. This is now reproducible on three different systems, all on the same URL: you just scroll and within minutes, part of the page text will shimmer. Might I private message you the link, reproduction steps, and a screen recording? Already submitted to the smiley with a link to the screen recording.
Each time the simmering text returns, Edge's CPU usage for that tab spikes up to 50% to 70%.
Add this now-third machine to the "not working" list:
- HP Spectre x360 late 2019 (Intel i7-1065G7; F.10 BIOS)
- 16 GB LPDDR4-3733
- 512 GB Samsung PM981a
- 1920 x 1080 resolution set at 125%
- Intel iGPU driver 26.20.100.7463
- Windows 10 Home x64 1903 (18362.535)
- Edge Dev Version 80.0.361.9 (Official build) dev (64-bit)
I believe this Edge Dev version is much newer than where the Canary builds were at that time.
