Ask HN: Please stop making infinite scrolling websites

Please, stop. Sarcastic disclaimer: I am not backing my statements with facts. I think infinite scrolling websites are already a fact against themselves. - They might be visually appealing (sometimes) but they are against usability, load and usefulness in general. - Not even Pinterest (one of the most famous infinite scrollers advocates) allows you to go back to your scrolling level if you refresh. - They are annoying. Their format fits mostly mobile devices where knowing where you are in a page is perceived differently (and sometimes totally not important). - Fitting analytics (that make some sense) on infinite scrollers is another pain. - If I am using a website for anything different from leisure, I want to use its content as a reference for something I need to share or use later. - They were already despised in 2013: http://www.smashingmagazine.com/2013/05/03/infinite-scrolling-lets-get-to-the-bottom-of-this/ - They got XKCDed: https://x
