So you'd rather something like Slack was paginated? I think that would be disastrously bad.

- drdexebtjl 3mo agoSlack isn’t infinite. At some point there are no more old messages or no more new messages depending on which way you’re scrolling. The problem is infinite content.
- iamnothere 3mo agoPagination works just as well with infinite content.
- drdexebtjl 3mo agoGood. Use pagination instead.
- esafak 3mo agoWhat good does it serve to have to constantly hit 'next page' in the middle of a real-time conversation? That's a bad UX.
- drdexebtjl 3mo agoMaybe re-read the thread? A real-time conversation is not infinite content, it’s chronological and it ends when there are no more new or old messages. You shouldn’t use pagination, and I don’t expect this law or any similar law to enforce pagination on real-time conversations.
