My latest MASSIVE pet peeve is headers and footers that appear or disappear as I scroll on my phone.
So when I go to scroll up, all of a sudden the header appears and moves everything I was looking at so I lose my position. Then when I go to scroll down they all disappear and everything moves yet again.
- eviks 3y agoYeah, those are awful. Can't wait for mobile browsers to finally get ublock origin extension so you could delete those elements Though that'd still be tedious :(
- cwillu 3y agoFirefox on mobile has ublock origin, and yes, it is quite tedious given how the UI ends up working on mobile.
- Larrikin 3y agoFirefox on Android has had this for years. Personally I prefer AdNauseam so I can be combative instead of passively blocking.
- Grothendank 3y agoYou might enjoy this benchmark: https://www.reddit.com/r/browsers/comments/zebad6/a_few_android_w_ad_block_browser_benchmarks/ https://www.reddit.com/r/browsers/comments/zebad6/a_few_andr... Some highlights: - Vivaldi is suprisingly fast and has good ad blocking - Kiwi plus the Ublock Origin extension (UBO) might be /even faster/ - Firefox also allows UBO, but sadly it is relatively slow
- MBCook 3y agoWell the other option appears to be having them always visible so my 6.1” phone feels like the original 3.5” iPhone with the keyboard up. As we all know, it is completely impossible to have the header and footer just scroll with the content the way it used to in the 90s.
- gumby 3y agoThey also break space-to-scroll-one-page on laptop/desktop. Fortunately there’s the anti-dickbar plugin to kill them on safari.
