Do you get burning on the off-cut side (to the right of the blade) if the material is clamped down to the slider? ?What blade are you using and do you have a rivving knife installed and properly adjusted?

I am about to re-check the alignment of the slider on my saw. I thought I had it pretty well tuned up, following the David Best videos, but am seeing some unexpected behavior.
Small offcuts tend to fling back toward the front of the saw. If I trim 1/8” off the end of a piece, for instance, the off cut will often fly clear off the saw.

Does this behavior give me some clues as to the slider alignment? Is it telling me I have too little toe-out, or maybe too much? I’m not burning the off-cut.
?
Thanks for any advice!
