When smartphones became a thing a whole new requirement for web responsiveness was born. I wonder about a third kind: webpages that “paginate” rather than scroll.
I love the idea of eInk. Most of the good things I do on my phone would be improved with it, and most of the time killers would be discouraged. But I’m not sure I could handle the scrolling.

- keheliya 2y agoIf you have an android based eink device, try einkbro https://github.com/plateaukao/einkbro https://github.com/plateaukao/einkbro It supports mapping pageUp/down to touch gestures or physical buttons. You can avoid scrolling that way. I wish I had a way to install on a Kindle too
- rchaud 2y agoYou can do that on the Boox devices. On their default Neo browser, the volume keys act as PgUp/PgDn, so the screen doesn't refresh when you scroll a few pixels. I had this feature on the Dolphin Android browser way back in the day.
