Would a "Back To The Top" button be something that would make Fluther better?

Asked by TheVaal (157points) May 28th, 2019

I have difficulty scrolling. Once I have got to the bottom of the page a “Back To The Top” button would be a useful feature for me. I am wondering if there are others in the same position.

“Alt + up arrow” will return to top. Must be out of yellow answer box.

MAC users it is the “cmd” key instead of “Alt”.

For me, CTRL+Home takes me to the top & CTRL+End takes me to the bottom. My ALT+Arrow key seems to go nowhere. I also can’t do it if my cursor is still in the yellow answer box. I’m using an HP Envy laptop with Win10 if that makes any difference.

I think it would be helpful, especially on the mobile app.

@KNOWITALL Get a “Bluetooth” keyboard.

@Tropical_Willie Got one, just the mobile app on the phone is a pain.

Use “Desktop” version on your phone.

@Tropical_Willie But then I can’t see Social or Meta, only General. Getting a new phone soon, maybe it will help.

The opportunity to make Fluther better has long since passed.

Thank you @LadyMarissa! A back to the top button would still be the easiest as I use a touch screen. The Crtl+Home & Ctrl+End are the next best thing. Thanks for the tip.

On iOS you can tap the bar at the top that contains the time and battery status and it will scroll you to the top in both Safari and Firefox.
