Rules:
- 1: No spam or advertising. This basically means no linking to your own content on blogs, YouTube, Twitch, etc.
- 2: No bigotry or gatekeeping. This should be obvious, but neither of those things will be tolerated. This goes for linked content too; if the site has some heavy "anti-woke" energy, you probably shouldn't be posting it here.
- 3: No untagged game spoilers. If the game was recently released or not released at all yet, use the Spoiler tag (the little ⚠️ button) in the body text, and avoid typing spoilers in the title. It should also be avoided to openly talk about major story spoilers, even in old games.

Many UX people disagree with you. Here's a discussion on it, including the guy who invented infinite scroll:

You can disagree. That doesnt make it invalid. Also, the point I‘m making still stands.
I dont like you stating things as if they were an objective truth. It is your opinion that infinite scrolling is "good" or whatever you wanted to say. But it is a retention method and not just a QoL feature. There are articles explaining this and some websites have expressly disabled it because it leads to problems for people who are vulnerable.
You can see from the downvotes that you‘re being trolly but not fun.
I guess we just agree to disagree and go our seperate ways now.
Have a good one.
