Oh god no, the solution is simple stop reimplementing the browser in the browser.
- matthuggins 7y agoGoogle Drive does this within Google Chrome, fwiw. I don't disagree with the spirit of your comment though.
- ottomatias 7y agoI'd say Google and Algolia are the only companies with the resources and know-how in search that can even think of this. And probably even they shouldn't.
- blablabla123 7y agoThe result can give a much better UX if done properly. (If done poorly it's just frustrating of course...) Just think of SPAs vs normal backend templated apps. The SPA can be much faster with poor network connection or when the data needed is large but unpredictable. Then the SPA can really shine, if routing is (re-)implemented well enough.

- Kaze404 7y agoI would agree, if the opposite didn't make the page unusable. Infinite scrolling doesn't really work if you don't unload what's on the screen (at least it didn't the last time I tried it, in 2014).
