This is why in metro microsoft made the first screen go like 90% there instead of 100%, makes it clear that there is more content beneath.

It's also a recommendation in Material Design:

"Cut off grid tiles in the view’s initial scroll position to communicate the scroll direction for content overflow."

This loaded most of the way down the page for me, with the little grid diagram thing at the top of the screen. Causing me to immediately scroll upwards (a non-intuitive direction) really exemplifying the point, haha.

That's not a bad idea, I've done something similar on other sites I've built before. The landing doesn't need to be 100vh.
