Infinite Scroll Breaks the Back Button
But there’s an easy fix!In many ways, web usability is at an all-time high, provided you’re using a modern browser. However, something that’s become quite common over the past few years is an infinite scroll mechanism, in which additional content is loaded in the bottom of the current page rather than requiring the user to navigate to a next page of content. This greatly speeds up browsing by removing the overhead of loading the styles, scripts, headers, etc.Jeff Stephens2 min read
