Off-topic but is anyone else unable to scroll on this page?
Whenever you have such a complaint - and choose to make it public - please include more details. What system, what browser, add-ons (adblocker) at least.
EDIT: Downvotes? For answering the question truthfully? It does work for me. The question was (is) "is anyone else unable to scroll on this page?" -- and I have no problem scrolling. I answered the question! The question was NOT "do you think the page is designed badly". If that is what was meant, that is why I said "needs more details". All the person asked was about "being able to scroll"! And the design issue does not prevent it. I answered the question that was actually asked! I assumed, and still do, that the person isn't able to scroll at all.
The scrollbar is also hidden behind the top banner in some way, which suggests it's doing something non standard.
Why do people want to fiddle with the most basic UI/X idiom on the net?
They'll read a blog post, echo chamber the benefits over some kale juice and start hacking away.
