Are you against listening to the onScroll event in general, or only against scroll hijacking?

Are you against listening to the onScroll event in general, or only against scroll hijacking?
- patates 8y agoI'm not the person you are replying to but I have strong feeling that it's the latter. The scroll event has, IMHO, outside the annoying infinite scroll circus and the hijacks, a single good use: Lazy loading of expensive resources (then one would ask why it's not paginated in the first place but well).
- taoistextremist 8y agoIt's more convenient than pagination for the user. At least up until they want to share a specific section
- dmix 8y ago> At least up until they want to share a specific section Which is why I hate automatic pagination unless some sort of anchor or direct URL to a section is made (prominently) available.
- ThePadawan 8y agoI simply find it offputting for anyone to say "I as a web designer know better than you and will smooth your scrolling for you".
- mtrpcic 8y agoSo, the latter then.
- ThePadawan 8y agoI guess. Why would I object to the first? As long as it doesn't impact me, you can listen to whatever the hell you want.
