A flaw of this approach, is that if you don't have "slow mode" turned on, new posts change the position of the marker because instead of scrolling pass X
number of posts, it's as if you scrolled past X + number of new posts
.
Also, you can put emoji in the content field to get some easy icons.
article:nth-child(5n):after{
content: "⛺";
filter: greyscale(1);
}
Pitch
We can add an indicator to give the user an idea of how many statuses they've read in a row.
I've implemented a simple one that you can include in your custom css if you like.
Motivation
It ends up looking something like:![image](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/61608357/232246080-5414e554-c906-4eac-a33a-d9558c937698.png)
The motivation is that an endless feed encourages endless consumption. By adding a visual indicator every 5 statuses, it gives you some sense of how much you are consuming and makes it easier to stop scrolling.
Notes:
but having the pages be numbered made me feel more anxious/guilty than I would like. A chill circle is pretty neat though.
