Nav sidescrolling finnicky on mobile #20

I'm having a hard time swiping through the sticky nav on mobile. It usually takes me 2 or 3 tries to get it to work. Also I am only able to scroll to the right, but not the left. Any ideas?

oh I think I know what’s going on here. I couldn’t make it a “true” scroll container on desktop because the scrollbars look weird (most users will always view scrollbars for scroll containers, which is a good signifier, but it interfered with your design). But on mobile it does need to be a “true” scroll container 🤔

But really it’s not mobile v desktop so much as it is touch vs non-touch, and those devices are traditionally tricky/impossible to separate (many windows laptops have touchscreens, e.g.).

🤔 Anyway, will have to think of a good solution to this. Or if I can’t, just fix it for mobile at the very least (and iPad may be somewhere in between)
