Scroolling 

Scroolling (over sthg.) When you're on a website or someone's social media and you can't stop scrolling and drooling over every single picture. Usually because you want everything you're seeing. Commonly happens when browsing the Instagram feed of a super cool clothing brand, or a model's Facebook page full of gorgeous selfies.
"Ugh, I can't stop scroolling over this girl's Instagram. Every pic is so. damn. lit."

"You're STILL scroolling that online shop?? Seriously?! Just buy something already!"

Within scrolling distance 

When the information you wanna access from a particular webpage is only a little bit further down the page from where you are. This means that it is close enough for you to be bothered enough to scroll down the page and access it quickly. It is therefore said to be 'within scrolling distance'
"I can't see where to type in my email address"
"That's because it's further down the page, but don't worry, it's within scrolling distance"

Online schooling 

Horrible idea, doesn't work well.
If teachers don't know how to use computers, then don't freaking do online schooling!

doom scrolling

Being unable to stop scrolling on social media. As in a doomed task for it isn’t productive. Can be positive and staying in touch with friends and family but unable to stop.
I didn’t get anything done today because I was doom scrolling.

scrolling blindness

In programming/computer science, refers to the effect of numerous exceptions being thrown in an application. The list of exceptions, often originating from one bug, makes it difficult to track down and forces programmers to scroll through a log of exceptions. Often the use of a logger will alleviate this problem.

Can also refer to a bloated log file of error messages.
It took twice as long to find the bug because our log file suffered from 'scrolling blindness'
