I love vanishing scrollbars. The moment I move my mouse, they're there. When I stop, they're gone. Want to see progress? Nudge the mouse.

- MrMcCall 2y agoI'm glad at least one person likes that "feature". I guess folks who rotate their monitors to portrait mode would appreciate not wasting the entire height on a permanent scroll bar, but I like knowing how far I am into the page (not that that's really a true indication of where the page will end due to how large the modern header and footer regions tend to be nowadays).
- Philpax 2y agoDon't forget lazy-loaded content as a further perversion of the scrollbar :'( Discourse is my mortal enemy.
- wtallis 2y agoMost vanishing scrollbars only show up if you mouse over them or use some other means to start scrolling; simply moving the cursor when it's over the content doesn't make them show up.
- bayindirh 2y agoYes, that’s true for Safari, for example. But Firefox shows it as soon as you move your mouse.
