Unexpected mouse speed in viewport on mac

Using my MacBook air 2017, whenever I try to drag boxes around objects in the editor viewport the mouse becomes uncontrollably fast and slides around the screen. the bug does not appear on windows. I have tried reinstalling the engine, changing engine versions and building from source. I am using the standard version without any modifications. it happens in every project consistently
