Windows autoscroll makes this game too easy. This feature was introduced a very long time ago, possibly with the IntelliMouse in the year 1996. Press on the scroll wheel (considered to be middle-click) and release the button, which overlays a little scroll guide circle. Move the mouse down to begin scrolling, and don't touch anything else. Click any mouse button to stop scrolling. (Another variant is to click and hold the wheel button, move the mouse down to scroll, and release the button to stop.)

Yes, yes, I know, but the site is designed for mobile devices and for the real pleasure of scrolling, not just cheating.
Just for fun ;)

What a great time, accompanied by smiles at the punchlines. I love the idea. Thank you for the time wasted.

Nice. I will now start using it when I feel a compulsive need to escape boredom during unfocused Zoom calls.
A few remarks:
- some sentences (many) seem to be cut off on desktop. I only see, eg. "content to keep the site from going viral" or "around here. We're not that ambitious".
- It's interesting that for users who have their device set to the superior scrolling direction ("reverse" scrolling, drag your fingers up to see what's at the top), your website behaves correctly but gives the opposite feeling. It's the first webpage where I've ever felt like "normal" scrolling (drag your fingers down to pull the page down) would be more natural.
- scrolling for long enough to get the first sound effect was quite a surprise

Looking forward to your next Zoom meeting ;)
That's strange about the cut-off sentences. What device are you using? I'll check it out, because I'm not having any problems on my end. Thank you so much for the great feedback, I really appreciate it!

Won't this lose precision as you near the limits of a double? Or is it using BigInt behind the scenes?

Finally, a website that makes me feel like activating a superpower when I unlock the scroll wheel on my mouse.

Ahahah. But it's more for your thumb, on mobile.

"This scroll will get you nowhere."
I disagree. It has gotten me to being entertained.

Small experiment about infinite scrolling.
It converts scrolling into a measurable distance.
The more you scroll, the more the site reminds you you're still scrolling.

iOS health app could track this like steps. Total distance scrolled on your phone.

There was a iOS jailbreak tweak called Treadmill where it exactly done that. Pretty cool to me.
