It's fine in my experience. I use Synergy 1 and I turn off smooth scrolling on my laptops and desktops. I find it more distracting that some apps support smooth scrolling and some don't, so I just turn it off altogether. Together with AutoHotkey on Windows and (Built-in) Applescript and Rectangle on MacOS, one is able to have similar keybinds on both operating systems.

Every app on macOS supports smooth scrolling. That’s why people use it. You’re using the lowest common denominator and going “wow everything is the same I can’t tell the difference”.

Only with hardware acceleration turned off. Which in my experience causes a stuttery and laggy experience which can hardly be described as "smooth".

If you really want to use MacOS's smooth scrolling, use MOS (https://mos.caldis.me) and get a beefy Mac because the base models will stutter like I mentioned.
