alright i switched back to chrome from firefox, those scrollbars were just too much
the reason most people don't bother with foss is that all the stuff that foss people say "doesn't matter" and "you get used to it" about is actually the only reason people use anything
@nightpool (softly) what am i looking at
@lycaon firefox's bug tracking "Style the scrollbar (binding ::-moz-horizontal-scrollbar to XBL)"
filed *17 years ago*
@nightpool holy shit
wait wait it gets better.
you ready?
@nightpool @chr oh my GOD
@lycaon @chr I actually feel kinda bad for not quoting that guy's whole comment, it's not *that* terrible https://cybre.space/media/3_LJa1n5ZYgshAjxPRo
@lycaon @chr @nightpool Do not be cutesy with your app and violate the platform's HIG was a big deal around that time. Especially for Apple, but also for Gnome 2.
Of course, today, people don't think of scrollbars in the browser as part of the browser's UI, but part of the page in the browsers canvas.
@gcupc @chr @nightpool yeah, it really seems like "scrollbars for elements within the page" and "the scrollbar for the whole page" should be different things
