chrome fucking scrollbar defender

Overriding native scroll behaviour is evil in 95% of cases.

It’s viscerally frustrating, like reading over someone’s shoulder at twice their speed, and because most people do it wrong it sabotages your interactions with the computer. Please just don’t.

usage

(note: ⍺ status)

This script is currently a bookmarklet. To use, open install.html and drag the link into your browser’s bookmarks/favourites bar.

Click the bookmark to restore sanity.

--> Try on the nicescroll homepage!

Technical note: bookmarklet wins over chrome extension because we can execute in the full context of the original document, accessing scripts like nicescroll that the godforsaken page has loaded.

targets / todo

  • jquery.nicescroll
  • more tba
  • greater flexibility+resilience also coming
