Flutter Loses Its Scroll Fingerprint

Description

A dark GitHub issue screenshot shows `github.com/flutter/flutter/issues/11884` with a closed issue titled "Scrolling with two fingers scrolls twice as fast #11884", opened by `goderbauer` and marked fixed by `#136708`. A comment by Simon Pham says, "It's time guys. We can no longer check if an app is written in Flutter using this scrolling behaviour." Beneath it is a reaction GIF frame with the caption "My time has come." The joke is that a long-standing Flutter gesture bug became an accidental fingerprint for identifying Flutter apps, and fixing it removes a community in-joke as much as a UI defect.

      it is 2^(n-1) times speed

        So, for 20 fingers it will be 524288 times faster)
