100%. Scrolling with arrows/mouse instead of hitting j or k just feels uncomfortable.

Maybe there's something to be learned by browser designers. It's not just the fact it's on the home row and muscle memory for Vim users. The default speed for down/up arrow scrolling and lack of smoothing is just not the same.

In vim, I usually scroll with ctrl-u/d?

Same but reading on the internet is not like scanning source code files. I tend to read much more linearly and the j/k scroll speed is fast enough. But obviously that's still an option.

That also works in vimium afaik, just a quicker scroll instead of jumps though.

I think most browser designers expect you to use the trackpad or a mouse wheel
