- bartread 6y agoMessing with native scrolling as a web antipattern is right up there with interfering with copy and paste. I will never understand why people do these things.
- srswtf123 6y agoI don't really understand why browsers allow it!
- dylan604 6y agothe browsers cannot control a dev that uses AJAX to continually redraw the page without causing the browser to update the history/location. typically a sign of a) a dev new to AJAX or b) a solo dev that created a PoC that got turned into a product with very little thought about things like history/state/etc. I myself am an option B person.
- srswtf123 6y agoThanks; I definitely don’t and can’t claim to understand the “front end” at this point. Your comment was enlightening.
- lostlogin 6y agoBreaking the back button is the ultimate sin in my book. This comes close.
- yellowapple 6y agoMy first web development job was for a Rails consultancy, where the owner of which explicitly stated that our apps were not designed to support using the back button. On another occasion, this same person responded to user reports of page zooming breaking the site with a counter of "then don't zoom the page". These moments were two of the first wherein I strongly reconsidered whether I had made the right career choices.
