#scrolling — Public Fediverse posts

Dear websites,

If I need to scroll DOWN your page I do not want a competing box that scrolls ACROSS the page that will take over the scroll direction as I pass it and actually make it damned hard to scroll PAST it.

I will never want this. Whatever you've put in that box isn't worth it.

If you feel you simply MUST do this, at least make the box diminutive in height and not spanning the whole page, so it's relatively easy to get past!

No love,

Me

Scrolling feels passive. Your phone knows it isn’t. Every pause, every linger, every skip is a revealed preference — and the algorithm is reading it with perfect attention.

I love #gnome, its #libadwaita app ecosystem. But I also love #scrolling #tiling à la #niri. For now, #paperwm works well, but I wonder what the future of window management in GNOME will look like. 🤔

Mosaic isn't going to cut it for me. 🫣

Boing Boing: SleepScroll is the anti-feed your brain has been waiting for. “SleepScroll is a free browser toy that offers an alternative to the endless social media feed. Instead, you are invited to interact with something designed to help you fall asleep rather than keep you awake. You scroll through a night sky where every familiar gesture works differently.”

Secondo i risultati preliminari di un’indagine portata avanti dalla #CommissioneEuropea, #Instagram e #Facebook sarebbero due #piattaforme che creano #dipendenza per il loro design, a partire dallo #scrolling infinito. Non è un problema di abuso: i loro #algoritmi sarebbero costruiti per favorire un’uso compulsivo dei contenuti

On my way from #gnome to #niri, I've installed #paperwm, and I'm totally in love! 😍

I had to strip its settings down to bare #scrolling window management, but other than that, I have no complaints.

When I have some time, I'll install #niri and explore what I'd be missing by leaving GNOME behind. I still intend to use the GNOME default and circle (etc.) apps, though—I just like them too much. ☺️

FLASH PACKAGING

A lot of things marketed as pleasure are really just agitation with flash packaging.

Sugar, outrage, scrolling, gossip, novelty, compulsive buying, the whole glittering little circus.

Perfume on things that were never designed to make the body peaceful.

There is an option on Tumblr to allow paging of your feed. It makes it so the feed stops after a while, and you push a button to go the next page. Can we get that option for #Mastodon?

Advantages: it gives you a built in mandatory pause that infinite scroll doesn't. I use it to go to the bathroom and switch tasks.

It also helps you find recent posts because if you can guess the number of pages back you can change the page number in the URL and jump back to an older post.

🎩🤖 Oh, the horror! The poor soul just *can't* handle search engines daring to organize data for them. Weep for the lost art of #scrolling through pages of irrelevant links. Let us mourn the death of clicking aimlessly—2026's real tragedy. 😱🔍

🚀 Wow, an article about CSS-native #parallax effects! Because clearly, what web developers need most is another way to make users seasick with #scrolling animations. 🙄 Let's all pretend this is groundbreaking and not just another way to keep people pretending they need to touch JavaScript. 😂

Maybe I am old man yelling at clouds, but I really couldn't imagine being in school/university now. #Internet, especially mobile internet with its insidious nature, messed up my #AttentionSpan, #patience and #focus ability. I could compare this, I still remember my great focus and motivation in my school years.

I had internet at home when I started high school but rarely used it, only for info searching, not "to spend time there". Halfway in university years (my first Android #smartphone) I had that "scrolling and mobile gaming" phase which noticeably affected my focus ability first time. And in my first year in first serious job I fell into "long commute + much mobile data" trap.

Luckily I never noticed problems with book #reading I sometimes hear of, I still prefer good long novel rather than scrolling. And I feel less guilty when my day mysteriously disappears because of reading instead of mindless web surfing (and immediately forgetting what I found).

But there are some effects I notice regularly. I am easily bored/annoyed/tired on longer work meetings. I can't imagine I could sit on 2 h long lectures again. I can rarely JUST WAIT for something, tram, meeting, boiling water, most times I take my phone. Not mentioning taking phone to toilet, which I ever resisted for few years. And sometimes I have to actively fight against this automatic urge to check web, to get chores done. It also gave me this not so healthy mentality of seeking shortcuts and minimizing/avoiding effort.

I feel affected even when I started scrolling at ~23 years old. I expect children starting in much younger ages, before they develop good discipline and attention span, could have much serious problems.

Ich stellte gestern Abend YouTube Shorts aus, sowohl am Handy als auch am PC.
Absichtlich kein TikTok und kein Instagram zu haben, tut mir echt gut, doch ich merkte, dass ich bei YouTube ab und zu in die Doomscroll-Falle tappte. Damit ist jetzt Schluss.

#Reels served in #infinite #scrolling powered by #algorithms are the #opium of the century.

A tax should be imposed, as with #alcohol and legalized #drugs .

Additionally, #social service providers using #algorithms should be required to provide users with #data and access to the #algorithm (even without disclosing weights\source code) so that users can effectively test for #bias.

The Infinite Scroll: By removing natural stopping points (like pagination or "end of page" markers), the interface creates a state of continuous cognitive suspension. The brain never receives the cue to pause and evaluate the passage of time.
