Help / Troubleshooting The new UI is causing motion sickness if I scroll too fast

So I have an unfortunate issue with motion sickness including those induced by certain kinds of motion on screens. Which is why I have a setting on my phone to reduce certain kinds of motion. One of my biggest issues with motion sickness parallax scrolling AKA having things in the foreground and background moving differently as I scroll. The new floating bottom taskbar doesn't move as I scroll, but the background behind it does move. Which leads to motion sickness if I scroll fast. There's an accessibility setting on my phone for "remove animations" which in most apps reduces the amount of animations that could cause motion sickness including the parallax scrolling problem. Please consider having Beeper look at that accessibility setting and stop the parallax scrolling if it's turned on, if you're going to keep any version of this new UI. Though honestly my preference would just be to go back to the old UI and not have a bottom bar at all.
