#1, images that load only when they scroll into view, bother the hell of out me. I doubt there's a website that enabled this where I haven't noticed the constant flashing of content as I scroll down. Looks rather glitchy and constantly distracting from the text you're reading.
Luckily not that many sites have it, but come to think of it, does anyone know of an add-on or something to disable the lazy attribute?
- zamadatix 6y agoIn Firefox you can set "dom.image-lazy-loading.enabled" to false in about:config. In Chromium based browsers set "Enable lazy image loading" to disabled in about:config In Safari it's still an experimental feature you have to enable manually. . Of course since Safari doesn't support it yet plenty of sites lazy load via classic JS style solutions and trying to fix those is like playing whack-a-mole.
- lucb1e 6y agoThat's neat! Just searching for lazy I get all the relevant options, like bottom margin. I'll be tweaking those (when I page down, which I use a lot with spacebar, I go down about 1100px, so no wonder that the default of 300 isn't working for me) and only disable it altogether if this stuff still happens. Thanks!
- zamadatix 6y agoToo late to edit but it chromium browsers it's about:flags not config
- eyelidlessness 6y agoNot saying you’re wrong, or that it isn’t annoying, but in my experience it’s typically JS lazy loading solutions which cause this. Native HTML lazy loading, again in my own experience, is generally aggressive enough that I rarely if ever scroll to where an image would be in view before it loads.
