One thing that I’ve always liked is the endless scrolling. IDK if there’s a way to endlessly scroll through magazines but maybe that would make it more like reddit /r/all … Because I would almost always go there and scroll for thousands of pages.
Even on sites that I’ve developed, I’ve gotten rid of the pagination. Unless it’s something completely stupid, I just allow the user to scroll and feed in the results below the fold…
I prefer non endless scrolling. Seems healthier. Maybe if you could toggle it.
If you go on settings, there is the option for infinite scrolling url
My screenshot is in my language, not English, but you get the idea
I get not having infinite scroll for threads due to doom scrolling and I don’t have it enabled, but is there a way to turn on infinity scroll for comments? I grew up on forums, and should be somewhat used to it, but reddit spoiled me in that regard and I do miss it.
As long as it is an option you can toggle. I much prefer pagination for most things.
There already is an option to turn endless scroll on/off - it’s in the settings menu on the side of the screen (hit the little gear icon).
Noice. Thanks. I also found where the themes are at lol.
It kinda breaks my head that some people would PREFER doomscrolling. I always thought of it as a cheap psychological trick by designers to keep eyes on ads.
I mean, a lot of people use this platform/any other platform as a way to use up ‘empty time’. I’m not doing anything useful anyway, might as well get distracted by semi-interesting news.
For sure. I hate how most sites do infinite scrolling. When I go “back” what I really want is to return to my previous view, even if that’s 1000 posts deep (that’s actually a pretty wasteful action, which is again why I prefer pagination).
