Chrome fixes jellypotato! (kind of)
-
The latest versions of Chrome (56+) do their best to prevent these jumps with the help of a feature called scroll anchoring. Google tested scroll anchoring in the Chrome beta versions for the last year and now it’s on by default.
Google says the feature currently prevents almost three jumps per page view — and, over time, that number will likely increase.
It’s worth noting that the focus of this feature is on mobile, simply because the smaller screen means more content is likely to be loaded off-screen, but it’s actually now on by default on Chrome for Mac, Windows and Linux, too (as well as on Chrome OS).

Didn't we have this before? And it reacts badly with nodeBB's attempts to fix jellypotato?

@Yamikuronue ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

This matters to me not, as I have achieved true zen, and accepted jellypotato as part of the experience that is my life.

@Yamikuronue we tried this a while ago, and it was terrible. Since people haven't been complaining, I would assume that Google has updated the implementation.
