every time there's a Show HN, there's always someone who shits on the web-page "hijacking" the scrolling.
Only when the Show HN is of a website that hijacks scrolling.
When it doesn't, surprisingly, there are neither complaints about hijacking scrolling nor complaints that would be resolved by hijacking scrolling.
There may be a message in that.
It's annoying commentary because you're looking at it through a very narrow lens that 99% of the people don't care about.
IME, non-technical people are thrown even harder by violations of basic platform UI conventions like hijacking scrolling or having no indication that scrolling is necessary.
