applying any design language feels wrong. it's pure manipulation -- i remember being forced onto the official twitter app and couldn't believe there wasn't a scroll bar. i felt lost; the timeline felt infinite, swallowing

They want you doom scrolling.

It's one reason I like kbin. I'll read to page 5 and that's my limit for a session. Endless scrolling is annoying.

On kbin you have the choice to set it to doom scroll if you want.

Choice is the important thing with something like doom scrolling.

Yes.

I also like upvote and downvote separated. Some apps don't have that option.
