I hate what browsers have done to the scroll bar, perfectly illustrated by this 2020 era CodePen that previously displayed a variety of scroll bar colors and widths and went from the version on the left to the modern browser version on the right.Permalink On twitter.com

I especially hate how browsers hide the scroll bar entirely on mobile devices. Horizontal scrollbars should be easy & straightforward to force into permanent visibility when the content is expected to make a scroll opportunity non-obvious yet... they do not.Permalink On twitter.com

But back to the original point: I don't understand the obsession with withholding developer control over the scroll bar. This should be an obvious feature for developer manipulation, as it's a vital part of interaction with your page.Permalink On twitter.com
