And a few more possibly good tweaks, it could also:
- be pausable, allowing to reach the page's footer
- be resumable from the latest viewing point on page reload
- modify current URL periodically
- preload new data slightly before reaching the end of last page
- auto-pause at some point to prevent mental overload
- be switchable, in part to "Click to continue" state, in options
- Aeolun 5y agoMaking all these things is too much effort, can I just use a good old paginated view instead?
- sovok_x 5y agoWhy not both with an options switch? Everything has its uses.
- nickjj 5y ago> - modify current URL periodically This is a big one. Without this it's so frustrating to infinite scroll down to the equivalent of 12 pages, leave the page and want to go back to roughly where page 12 is another time. Instead you have to start from the top and scroll down. You'd likely save a good amount of server compute power just using push state to update the page in the URL as you go so folks can copy / paste it and jump right back to that page later.
