Paul B. (ID: 000000e8459e52fc) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 06/09/2024 Trying it again after many years, on Vivaldi, and preliminary testing is fantastic. I'm in drag to scroll mode, with the text exclusion, and it seems to work perfectly. Well executed and with plenty of options. Thanks much!

Hunter (ID: 000000898b6f9d6a) Voted 1 ★ - Updated 09/10/2023 Only works on the settings page.

A. J. McGinnis (ID: 00000073e99bb033) Voted 1 ★ - Updated 03/21/2023 Wish it worked, because the premise is awesome. Unfortunately the only page it actually works on is the 'Scrollbar Anywhere' options page-- it doesn't do a thing anywhere else.

Hà Lê (ID: 00000057fb5b9caf) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 02/14/2023 Immaculate

Seeker (ID: 000000e62c3378a4) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 11/28/2022 I've been looking for this for 30 years.
