Do you prefer "natural" or "reverse" scrolling?

I find that on webpages or PDFs natural scrolling feels better, but for volume and seeks bars only reverse scrolling makes sense.

>>61720161
It's pretty dumb, and anti-ergonomic
>>
>>61720161
Reverse obviously
>>
>>61720161
Natural obviously
>>
>>61720161
Both obviously
>>
>>61720161
I find finger scrolling dumb.
>>
Natural on a touch screen, inverse on a trackpad.
>>
Its pretty nice. Also default.
>>
>>61720161
Natural on Touchscreen.
Either on touchpad
NORMAL on mouse.
>>
>>61722116
this

none obviously

>natural
Natural ALL THE WAY!

You move the fingers up, content goes up.

You scroll the wheel up, content flows up.

It's like a touch screen... you push something up, it goes up.

Windows uses the retarded way because you're suppose to move the scroll bar and not the content... which is retarded.

Under Linux and Windows it's easy to setup natural scrolling. It takes 20 min to switch your brain and then you'll never use the retarded way.

>>61722229
Reverse.
You move the fingers up you go up.

Nope. You move the finger up, content goes DOWN.
>>
>>61722396
Nope. You move the finger up, YOU go UP.
>>
>>61720161
no

Is that a utility for Windows 10 that will improve trackpad performance and efficiency?
>>
>>61722619
every touch panel and control surface (audio mixing board) behaves like natural scrolling does.

only retarded OSes still use the scroll bar as the guide.
>>
It depends on if I'm using a trackpad or a mouse, it pisses me off I have to toggle it when I switch

GNOME does not have this problem :^)

It's almost like it's not a touchscreen.
When you move your finger up do you expect mouse pointer to go down?

Finger goes down content goes up, just like a piece of paper.
>>
I don't understand the shitty naming, but I prefer my interfaces to move my view, not the paper.
I think it is more accurately reflects the viewing of an environment by a human, and I have a feeling I'm not gonna like this meme at all.
>>
>>61722116
the only acceptable choice
>>
>>61720161
natural but with edge scrolling
>>
>>61722708
When I'm looking at a poster on the wall for example I don't poke my finger at it and move the poster up or down to see all of it, I move my eyes up or down and thus my view moves up or down. Position of the viewport is the key here, not scrollbar, which just happens to represent the same concept
>>
>>61720161
>"natural" or "reverse"
Bitch I use the built in scroll in the middle of the keyboard
>>
>>61723709
this
>>
>>61720161
Before I had a touchscreen device I preferred reverse scrolling, now I can't use anything than natural.
But
>>61723709
this is best
>>
>>61720161
What does those marketing terms mean?
>>
>>61723709
>>61723723
>>61723749
kys. that's the pointing device, you configure the touchpad to be a full sized scrolling device
>>
Stupid poll #570'071,055.
>>
>>61723781
I disable that shit.
It is poorly placed and awkwardly sized.
>>
>>61723781
>doesnt know how to scroll with trackpoint
can your "touchpad" (sounds like a pedophile device) even scroll in both axes at the same time? didnt think so
>>
>>61723816
normally it's one axis only as that's super comfy to use with thumbs, but two fingering it makes it do both axis at the same time
>>
>>61723854
uh no it doesnt dumbass
>>
In my mind, I scroll the scrollbar, not the content. So, it's natural scrollbar scrolling for me.
>>
>>61723879
That's how I have it configured on my x220 running gentoo. Maybe you should stop using inferior OSs
>>
>>61720161
I just cannot get used to "natural" scrolling. Everything else Apple have ever done to the touchpad I've initially been a bit skeptical on but come around to after a while, but "natural" scrolling just feels too weird and unnatural to me. It's probably like Dvorak vs QWERTY; there are apparently advantages and it's possible to change, but I just don't see them as compelling enough to be worth working to overcome decades of muscle memory.
>>
>>61720161
up goes up and down goes down

the otherway around is stupid on non touch screens
>>
>>61723940
>>61724145
"natura"l is stupid even on touchscreens as you finger gets in the way of the content as you scroll and no acceleration is possible without fucking up with the "intuitive" feel of moving the content around. Small flick down to shift the viewport downwards is way more efficient
>>
>>61724145
but anon there is no "up" and "down" on a mouse, there is forward and backward
>>
>>61720161
If it is a tablet or smartphone, natural.
If it is a touchpad, reverse.
>>
>>61724198
"Natural" on touchscreens I'm fine with; in that case the metaphor of moving the page rather than moving the field of view makes more sense and is more intuitive. My finger getting in the way of content isn't a big issue, since I tend to swipe near the edge of the screen and in any case move my hand out the way once I'm where I want to be. Acceleration is actually sorta possible; on Apple devices at least if you quickly flick there's some inertia so it keeps going a bit, and if you keep flicking it keeps going quickly. It is actually pretty intuitive.
>>
I prefer having an actual fucking mouse, because trackpads/touchpads are shit. If I don't have room for a separate mouse, give me back a clit mouse any day.
>>
>>61723709

consider sudoku

I pictured this in a literal way and found it funny.
Too lazy to make a shitty paint pic
>>
>>61720161
Humans adapt to anything. You can reverse the y axis of your mouse and it will take you a couple of minutes to no longer notice it.
>>
>>61726581
>not scrolling with space / shift space
>>
>>61722229
>Windows uses the retarded way because you're suppose to move the scroll bar and not the content... which is retarded.
It's retarded to not have a choice whether to have scroll bar or not.
>>
>>61724460
>I prefer having an actual fucking mouse
How about an actual fucking trackball?
>>
just use j and k to scroll vim like
>>
>>61720161
Reverse scrolling all the way. Apple introduced "natural" scrolling as default a couple years ago, when previously the default was "reverse".

Calling it "natural" is some Apple gaslighting shit.

>>61722761
>It's almost like it's not a touchscreen.
100% this.
>>
Circle scrolling

turn finger clockwise,scroll down
anti-clockwise for scroll up

fite me

Just like you said

So that you slide down and it pulls the page up, just like if you were pushing a real paper
