Just likte this demonstrates the stupidity of infinite scrolling, here is a site that demonstrates how easy it is to manipulate everybody to click click on things that gives us rewards:

Windows autoscroll makes this game too easy. This feature was introduced a very long time ago, possibly with the IntelliMouse in the year 1996. Press on the scroll wheel (considered to be middle-click) and release the button, which overlays a little scroll guide circle. Move the mouse down to begin scrolling, and don't touch anything else. Click any mouse button to stop scrolling. (Another variant is to click and hold the wheel button, move the mouse down to scroll, and release the button to stop.)

I'm confused by that thing. After scrolling for a couple of minutes, the animation seems to play on on its own for longer than I cared to wait. Isn't the animation supposed to be coupled to the scrolling?

And it doesn't really feel like scrolling either, since apart from the tiny depth bar on the left, no content scrolls by.

Might want an epilepsy flashing warning? for things like 666m and 1000m

crazy level of eye damage from the flashing effects. Turns something cute into something painful, so thanks for that.

Nice. I will now start using it when I feel a compulsive need to escape boredom during unfocused Zoom calls.

A few remarks:

- some sentences (many) seem to be cut off on desktop. I only see, eg. "content to keep the site from going viral" or "around here. We're not that ambitious".

- It's interesting that for users who have their device set to the superior scrolling direction ("reverse" scrolling, drag your fingers up to see what's at the top), your website behaves correctly but gives the opposite feeling. It's the first webpage where I've ever felt like "normal" scrolling (drag your fingers down to pull the page down) would be more natural.

- scrolling for long enough to get the first sound effect was quite a surprise

Nice! Reminds me of https://gagzap.com/

Fun. I took out a tape measure to see how accurate it was. It wasn't very accurate. Also the scale on the left scrolls faster than my finger. Fennec(Firefox) on Android.

iOS health app could track this like steps. Total distance scrolled on your phone.

You should add a punchline about training for a thumb war (with a rocky reference ?).

Small experiment about infinite scrolling.

It converts scrolling into a measurable distance.

The more you scroll, the more the site reminds you you're still scrolling.

"This scroll will get you nowhere."

I disagree. It has gotten me to being entertained.

Won't this lose precision as you near the limits of a double? Or is it using BigInt behind the scenes?

Finally, a website that makes me feel like activating a superpower when I unlock the scroll wheel on my mouse.

What a great time, accompanied by smiles at the punchlines. I love the idea. Thank you for the time wasted.

you made my day!

Did I hear a moan after pausing around 200m ?

Can you add an option to switch to feet? :)
