I'm on desktop firefox 70 and I can't scroll either. When are web devs going to stop this nonsense? Don't override basic behavior.

  Desktop Chrome 77 can kinda sorta scroll a little bit sometimes.

    Same. Absolutely galling.

      Mouse wheel doesn't work on FF, but clicking the down arrow at the bottom of the scroll bar does. Annoying indeed.

        For the other suffering Ubuntu Firefox users with no scroll bars: I got it working with the Page Down key. Annoying++ right there. I guess scroll bars were ugly or too complicated, so they had to go.

  Press F9. Reader Mode ftw.

Can't scroll on firefox 60 on Debian either. Works fine by blocking all scripts with umatrix or in reader mode.

Horribly broken as it doesn't even scroll in netsurf.

It works fine if you don't run scripts on the page.

  Looks like it uses this JS that promises "Smooth scrolling experience" https://github.com/gblazex/smoothscroll-for-websites https://github.com/gblazex/smoothscroll-for-websites Actually, I get no scrolling experience. Solution: Open up devtools and run this in console, > SmoothScroll.destroy()

Same problem for me in Firefox on Windows. Scrolling using cursor keys doesn't work. Using the scroll wheel on the mouse doesn't work. Scrolling by clicking and dragging the scroll widget also doesn't work, because the page puts a transparent header at the top of the page, that somehow extends over into the scrollbar, blocking the widget! I found three ways to scroll the page: - Click in the scrollbar below the scroll widget; this moves the widget out from under the invisible header, allowing it to be clicked - Use the Kill Sticky Headers[0] extension to remove the header - Use reader mode [0] https://alisdair.mcdiarmid.org/kill-sticky-headers/ https://alisdair.mcdiarmid.org/kill-sticky-headers/

I'm on Chrome on MacOS and could scroll with magic mouse, but no keyboard scrolling via arrows or spacebar.

Ooh, I don't know Outline. Does it have a browser extension? I can't find one. I've been using Mercury Reader, and the old Readability extension before that, but I like the idea of being able to share readable urls, like you just did. Edit: Oh, though I guess you actually weren't supposed to do that: https://www.outline.com/dmca.html https://www.outline.com/dmca.html
