- nly 13y agoIt didn't even work for me. Scrolling, clicking... nothing causes anything to change. The scrollbar in Chrome is missing.
- 14113 13y agoIt's incredibly buggy for me - chrome on windows. Even when it allowed me to scroll, it was slow and jerky. I suspect it's designed for the acceleration based scrolling on mac touchpads however, so I'm not too surprised that the scrollwheel on my mouse disagreed with it.
- epochwolf 13y agoApple.com does not work well on chrome. It hasn't for years.
- skeletonjelly 13y agoOnly when Apple stops doing it I'm guessing. ducks I'm actually quite surprised they went with this. Maybe it tested well on touch surfaces...
- purephase 13y agoTo be honest, that's one of the worst implementations I've seen of that effect. Personally, I'm a fan of it when it's well done. Here's one example: https://www.airbnb.com/annual/ https://www.airbnb.com/annual/
- H3g3m0n 13y agoimho that irritates me more than the mac one since it's information and the mac one is a product review so the scrolling kind of gives you a way to get a feel for the product. Although it does have a working scroll bar which the mac one lack. On any of these how the hell am I supposed to navigate to a specific topic? or link any one to a specific point. The mac one does have tiny dots on the side. I think many people wouldn't even notice them. The entire scroll hack just seems like a gimmicky, non-intuitive, time consuming alternative to using a slider to forward though a animation/video or some kind of navigation buttons with an animated transition. Or just play a regular movie/animation.
- nnq 13y agohell yeah, carousels/sliders are harmless in comparison with these UX abominations...
