It does not seem to work on Firefox for iOS. I could not see any animation just the tiny click registration cards.
Nor Firefox on Android.

#42Okay I know this is gonna sound rude but who in the world would want form controls that behave this way?
Me.

#43Please never use scroll-snap as is done on this demo page (unrelated to the soft-body physics). It leads to an awful experience for a large fraction of users. It improves things in one or two scenarios, but at the cost of far more common great frustration. Scroll-snap is a really risky feature, very niche in its reasonable applications. This is definitely not a suitable place to use it.

can you give an example of why/how? I thought it was well done and enjoyable. Regular fast scroll was still as expected, and then the slower interactions felt like slide changes.

#44Waste of computing resources, and mildly distracting. This reminds me of compiz.

No, compiz was awesome

In my case it's way too sensitive, causing me to scroll too far every time.

#48I dont get why people are so mad at this? Looks fun, will I ever use it? Probably not, but it looks fun

#49Saw the window was a bit laggy so thought I'd delve deeper to figure out what was going on. This lib runs a a RAF animation loop every 8ms across every component on the page that causes the entire document to repaint. The comment above appears of the AI generated sort: // One shared animation frame: step every live component, park when idle. // The delta is capped so a background-tab pause never becomes one giant ste…
Running a performance profile in Chrome doesn't back this up for me, and looking at the loop it looks like it maintains an active `Set()` of which components to update, and clears them out when they stop moving.
Agreed the comments look a bit slop-ish but I don't see anything obviously wrong with its approach, and the core loop is running in microseconds for me when nothing is happening.
