When holding down any movement key the movement stops after about a second, but the stutters through every couple of seconds. This happens every single time I try to just move normally.
If I jump as I start holding down W, I am able to move normally until I let go of W.
I’ve had this issue for about a month, but it is reproduced in earlier versions of Java Edition.
My initial guesses are that this is either a Java compatibility issue, or an issue with the newest version of Ubuntu.
Environment
Kubuntu 25.10 using the Flatpak version of the Minecraft Launcher. Bug was replicated on Prism Launcher both via Flatpak version and from the appimage download
