Scrollbars are becoming a problem
Scrollbars. Ever heard of them? They’re pretty cool. Click and drag on a scrollbar and you can move content around in a scrollable content pane. I love that shit. Every day I am scrolling on my computer, all day long. But the scrollbars are getting smaller and this is increasingly becoming a probl...

I hate this hostile design. I hit this myself in a webapp the other day where I couldn’t scroll right on a wide table because chrome doesn’t show the scroll bar unless you’re already scrolling… until someone taught me shift + scroll wheel scrolls right on a Mac. Just give me a scroll bar!
““The simple fact that these skinny scroll bars exist are evidence that designers do not sit with non technical users to conduct usability testing. Because if they did that they would immediately discover the problem.

People with eye sight challenges suffer with these skinny scroll bars.””
