- albedoa 2y agoPart of why it is less offensive is it's not actually hijacking our scrolling: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=43572887 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=43572887 Scroll hijacking is when I try to scroll normally but the page overrides my distance and velocity.
- tiltowait 2y agoIt definitely feels “heavy” on mobile Safari. The animation is buttery smooth, but the little space station thing doesn’t rotate as quickly as I feel it should based on my scroll velocity. I feel like I’m alone in not liking it. The technical accomplishment is undeniably impressive, and the author deserves serious kudos for that, but I really wish websites wouldn’t do this sort of thing. It’s far less usable than just having some static tables.
- jonwinstanley 2y agoI’m not sure that was scroll hijacked. It all moved at the right speed
- cess11 2y agoI think they just measure the scrolling and drive the animations with it. Maybe that's what you mean by hijacking.
