Jesus you guys are pathetic.

Rolling

Install Vimperator
Use HJKL

I have worn out my arrows, otherwise a perfectly good laptop, the struggle is real.

reduced to space bar shit-snare, fuck that.

Autoscrolling. I feel crippled when I can't us it.

with your fingers. everything else is pleb-tier.

rollin'

ThinkPad middle mouse button and trackpoint is pretty comfy.

The objectively superior way are athena scrollbars. They're used in acme for example, but aren't found at all in recent software.
You can drag it like a normal scroll bar by using middle click + drag up/down.
But left and right click are used in an unusual but interesting way.
You can left click to scroll down and right click to scroll up. Your cursor position on the bar determines by how much you scroll.
This has the interesting effect that you can easily undo a scroll of any length.

Autoscrolling

Middle click scrolling

i find myself switching between page up/page down and arrows all the time because my netbook have them squeezed between each other.

sometimes i use two fingers on my touchpad, which simulates the mouse scroll but i still prefer the keys.

>>58814537
Logitech free scroll, got it on my G502. Had no idea how comfortable it would be until I used it.

Good ol' scroll wheel.

>Middle click scrolling
I wish I could turn this off, honestly. I practically never use it, and almost the only time I ever activate it is by accident when I'm trying to open a link in a new tab and miss.

>>58814537
Nigger, the best way is with Vimium.

k - up
l - down
K - previous tab
L - next tab
d - down half a page
u - up half a page

Typing this with Vimium right now.


Yes, I moved it by one to the right, but I find it extremely annoying having to move my hand one to the left. Fuck that.

Fuck emacs, this is the shit.

This guy >>58821006 is on the right track. Unfortunately he's a chrome/chromiumfag. The real patrician choice in this case is vimperator. Although you can modify these bindings, by default
h - left
j - up
k - down
l - right

>>58814537
Scroll Wheel
Two-Finger Scroll (Thinkpads)
Trackpoint Scroll (Thinkpads)
Arrow Keys
Page Up/Down

in that order.

I use spacebar because my fingers are near the touchpad
Two finger scroll is too inaccurate

Just ctrl+f where you want to go.

>>58814537
Page up/down would probably be ideal if there were a trackpoint and mouse buttons just above the arrow keys on a standard keyboard.

Actually just set up some keybinds for page up/down browsing on 4chan;
ctrl+ pgup/down = previous/next tab (default, chrome)
ctrl + home = close tab
ctrl + end = refresh
ctrl + insert = double click (used to permit tab-cycling to nearby links)
ctrl + enter = open tab-cycled link in new tab (default,chrome)
Reasonably effective overall I think, if you've got a pretty fast key-repeat speed

>>58814537
PgUp and PgDn is the patrician way to scroll, but only if you're using the num block.

use the mouse to click and drag the scrollbars

No but seriously that shit is the bomb.

Middle click scrolling is brilliant. You can set it to scroll at a certain speed and turn it off when wanted. Generally working a lot with middle clicks.

>>58814537
Autoscrolling is objectively the best generally speaking. It has an infinite about of granularity in scroll speed so you can easily go any speed you want, plus its highest speed far surpasses any other method except for directly dragging the scroll bar. Also because it is automatic it does not require any finger strain or use at all besides the initial click.

Just have enough monitors that you can view the whole page at once.

Scroll wheel and Firegestures

What browser are you using? In Firefox (and I think Chrome is the same) they call it autoscrolling so try turning that off.

>>58824496
Chrome. I've not been able to find any option for turning it off, and as far as I know no such setting exists.

VimFx for Firefox.

Best choice for true lazy scrolling/browsing.

>>58814537
Whichever is more comfortable at the time.

For example, I was just scrolling through /g/ using my right hand to prop up my head, and my left hand to scroll with the mouse wheel. Later I'll probably lean back with my left arm over the back of the chair and use pgup/pgdn/arrows.

Spacebar is the worst though, because then you have to, you know, move your hand if you want to skip back. And no one has time for that.

scrollwheel for normal browsing, arrow keys when my rand hand is busy cause i'm jerking off

Both, Page Up/Down + Scroll Wheel.

What I wish there was a momentum based motion. That way you can type a multiplier then scroll as if you flicked the page on a touch screen.
