Some threads 'auto scrolling'- advert?

[ISeeTrees]

Anyone else finding that their screen is automatically scrolling down? It's like I've turned auto scroll on but I haven't, and I can't scroll back up either. Not sure if it's an advert causing this? Happening on all boards (that I've been on anyway, food/recipes, aibu, chat etc).

Yes! I thought I'd just magically done something. It was briefly fun then annoying.

Glad it's not just me! Yes very annoying, it's going ever so slightly too fast to be useful.
While I'm at it, my food/recipes page has gone like this, and when I click a thread it opens in a new window which is really irritating too!:

Did it to me earlier. I assumed it was a glitch in my phone. Clearly it wasn't!

Happened to me too earlier today.

Yes, and it's really pissing me off!

Yep, me too. Very irritating!

Hi all,

Please can we have your devices/browsers so we can take a look? And a link to a thread where it's happening?

Samsung s23. Dunno about browser 🤷‍♀️

Just happened to me - I had to leave that post, too annoying. Samsung phone using Google Chrome I think. Will take a note of any threads it happens on again.

Samsung using Chrome

What 'app' do you use for the Internet on your phone?

It's been happening to me for ages. Really fucking annoying.

Using the app on an iPhone.

Oh yes, it was happening last night but seems to have stopped. Motorola phone and using chrome.

I had this yesterday, no idea which thread. iPhone on safari

Motorola, using Chrome

Google pixel, chrome & it's happening for me on this thread

Just happened. Samsung using chrome.

Same here and same thread

I'm Motorola using Chrome too. It hasn't happened yet but I haven't been on long- will report back.

Same here on my iPhone

Happening to me on this thread, but others too hence me looking for this thread. Google pixel chrome

Samsung using chrome. I thought there was something wrong with my phone! Glad it's not just me

Chrome on iPhone and it’s happening to me too, on the thread OP mentioned.

Morning, everyone. Thanks for all the details we've had on this so far. That's really useful.

We'd love to get more details - so URLs of the pages it's happening on and screenshots of the point you get scrolled down to would also be helpful. What would be brilliant is if someone could manage to catch this happening on a screen video so we can see exactly what's triggering it. We know that's a bit of a long shot but if it happens, and you can get it to repeat itself and capture that on a video that would be enormously helpful.

We'll keep looking at it in the meantime.

A screen video is a bit beyond me I'm afraid but it's just happened on this thread:

And it happened just before the mr vegas advert, here
