    I do wish it would scroll slightly slower, for those of us who read slowly/have dyslexia/etc.

      I think the idea is that everyone is seeing the same thing at the same time so it has to be the same scroll speed for everyone.

      In another but similar theme I'd rather have it autoscroll one page/autoturn pages than continuously scroll. Autoscroll reading is somehow very hard for me.

      (I like the idea though!)

      I have pained over this for a while and tried to find a happy medium...but on reflection and walking away for a while, I think it is slightly too fast. Will update.

        Damn, I would be so productive if I could read this fast. Is this a comfortable pace for you? Do you absorb the information?
        • mrroryflint9 months ago
          Give it a go on a desktop monitor - it should be a lot slower. The nature means smaller screens will scroll faster - I'm pushing a change shortly that will mean the sync isn't as accurate but it'll be nicer to view on all devices.

          Have fixed - let me know what you think.

            It’s slightly slower than my casual reading pace. I don’t think it’s a bad thing to slow the reader down a bit in this context.

            I am still curious if the original speed was comfortable for you?

            • mrroryflint8 months ago
              On a desktop it was fairly comfortable - on mobile it was too fast to sustain/process the information beyond seeing the words.

      Do I read slowly if this is scrolling too fast for me? Oooph. "If this scrolls too fast for you, you're getting old!", hehe

    I love this, very creative. I do wonder if it might be worth adding a subtle "?" icon or some other way to get a bit more context about the project.
    • mrroryflint9 months ago
      Thank you :-)

      There actually is a small icon on the bottom right (removed on mobile) but I obviously made it TOO subtle!

    Thank you, I think it pursues a human aesthetic that I needed today. I appreciate your work. I wish you well on your journey.
