Comment:

 I zoomed in to the original and stepped through it frame-by-frame at
 around 2 seconds into the video. See [attachment:"admin-bar-view-
 transition-slow-motion.mp4"].

 @zieladam Please confirm this is what you were referring to: The dashicons
 in the admin bar appear to not be initialized when first landing on the
 target page, which causes the admin bar items to appear to shift left and
 right during some navigations.

 I think I can reproduce this locally, but:

 1. I have to open DevTools
 2. I have to enable 4x CPU throttling
 3. I have to disable cache.

 So this all seems to boil down to rendering delay for the Dashicons font.
 Given that the font will be loaded on the first admin page view and
 subsequent page views will have it in cache (unless you've disabled cache
 via DevTools), then I do not think this is an actual issue that users will
 experience.

 So I'm suggesting that we close this as worksforme.
