Your comment is interesting.
I didn't think in that way and the site is fine. I use a laptop.
What is interesting is that I haven't used a mouse in earnest for ages - I'm so used to using a laptop and the only people I know thatdon't use laptops are gamers or in offices (though increasingly laptops rule there too).
So scrolling is a two-finger swipe to me and very natural.
I guess that mouse-users are the odd ones out today and not the major target of this page.
I haven't used a mouse to give it a go - I'd have unplug it from my iMac.
Good observation though.
I thought Gary had a desktop?
Re: iPhone SE 2020 web page
Gary does have a desktop and viewed the website in Firefox without any issues.
Re: iPhone SE 2020 web page
Doesn't appear that the animation works with Chrome-based browsers. At least here.
As Chrome is so widespread as the framework for browsers, Apple really ought to have made it work with all current browsers, all devices. Isn't that just good web development practice?
Re: iPhone SE 2020 web page
I don't use Chrome. But you cannot tell Apple what to do. They have a mind of their own.
Re: iPhone SE 2020 web page
I have viewed it on Firefox, Chrome and Safari and it's not very different across all of them.

Interesting observation Paul. I have a desktop, a laptop & an iPad. The first thing I did when I purchased to laptop was to also purchase a mouse, just couldn't get on with a touchpad. Intrestingly there was an article in this fortnights ComputerActive magazine were the writer was forced to work from home and therefore on his laptop, using his "terrible touchpad" He finally purchased a wireless mouse ..... Was really pleased with it but admitted that he often forgot it was there and just by force of habit continued using the touchpad!

I prefer a touchpad to using a mouse!
It's because I am so used to using my computer sat in the lounge not sat at a desk.
I find mice clumsy compared to a touchpad, but whatever suits.
I remember the days of trackballs..
Re: iPhone SE 2020 web page
Can't stand touchpads ... I find them almost impossible to use.
