I’m infinitely scrolling hacker news comments right now. You think adding a next page button is gonna change anything?


FB's research shows that, yes, any friction between you and the next post/article/item will decrease the likelihood that you see it.

A click == friction.


Have you ever watched a teenager (or addicted adult) scroll thought their IG feed? It's disturbing. They just scroll and scroll and scroll waiting for the tiny little dopamine hits. I don't know if a "Next" button fixes it completely, but it almost has to be better, even if only marginally so.
