Custom Scrollbars Extension

Customise the width and appearance of the scrollbars for most websites.
A long term Windows user I recently started using a Mac and found the teeny tiny scrollbars a nuisance to use. This extension allows you to make them wider so they are easier to click. You can also change the colours should you wish.

You can set a global default style for all website and also provide custom styles for individual sites.

Dave Van Domelen (ID: 000000d602213f3f) Voted 3 ★ - Updated 04/14/2023 It will work on some sites (Discord, for instance), but a lot of sites have such aggressive overrides that it has no effect. Nor will it add scrollbars back when the site has decided desktop machines no longer exist and everyone's on mobile.
