    Not in any special order

    • cookie banners
    • auto playing anything
    • sideways scrolling

      sideways scrolling

      Also: scroll-jacking.

      I decide how many lines I want to scroll with the wheel and I also intentionally disabled “smooth scrolling”. No need to change that, thank you, stupid website!

        Same thing with instagram, like when youre scrolling through reels or something it just straight goes to the next one. Ffs.

      What’s the issue with sideways scrolling?

        It’s mostly annoying because there’s no easy way to sidescroll and also, why would you even need to?

      cookie banner

      there’s an extension called “I don’t care about cookie” that removes that popup and automatically accept or reject them based on how you set it up
