This here is a very good example of how NOT to make a webpage.
Disagree. As an advert-page, for their demographic, it may very well be a great example.
Edit: I am looking at it on a Mac and not in a phone browser, so I may have missed some of the issues others are reporting.
Weird...I'm on a linux desktop and the scrolling is just awful.
Same here on Windows/Chrome. Mousewheel scrolling jumps all over the place, grabbing the scrollbar does nothing, and all of the animations constantly restart after playing for a few frames.
Looks a little like a parked domain page.
if you open your JS console, you'll see that the page reloads every second.
When I first read about these in WSJ I was very skeptical, but now I am fairly certain these will perform well. They are a cool fashion accessory.
I don't know what's going on, but scroll either doesn't work or I get pulled back to the top of the page every 0.1s. It's unnerving.
This is on an Android phone.
Page contents repeatedly flash in and out of existence for me, running ublock.
Lots of weirdness in my usual chrome browser too. Though I've got adblock. In Safari it actually worked ok.
Scroll horribly broken on desktop Firefox too.
That doesn't seem to apply to Firefox on Linux. Works well on Vivaldi browser (Chrome-based) on Linux too.
By the way, I don't use any ad blockers.
the video was laggy and then the page felt like it froze on chrome
Stuck in a loop on iOS too. Pretty embarrassing for any website, nevermind one from a technology company.
What the fuck is wrong with people who develop sites like this. Just stop. Use HTML and CSS and stop trying to fuck around with basic things like scrolling. It's so fucking self important.
I thought it was a fantastic site. Got me interested, got me to scroll all the way and told me everything I needed to know in a very visual way. I really liked this page.
Ah... just when you thought it couldn't get more annoying
