I wish people would read the rules of the website they are using.

I couldn’t - the scrolling mess made it impossible for me.

I meant HN.

I quit reading after a couple of minutes because of the scrolling.

It's not only the scrolling that isn't normal, I got dizzy when some image-like thingies starting flowing around the screen, had to close the browser tab at once. Maybe the page wanted to tell something, but whatever it is they could have done it via pure text form, that's what reading is all about.

Exactly. Make it normal by default, and animations on toggle.
