scrollingo

The digital world or state of mind where you scroll through social media or websites not to waste time, but to genuinely enjoy yourself, discover cool facts, and learn new things. It is the positive flip-side to "doomscrolling."

“I thought I was wasting my afternoon on YouTube, but I was actually deep in the scrollingo learning how to cook traditional Italian pasta and speak basic Japanese.”

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"

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'
