Infinite scrolling and infinite problems

Submitted May 20, 2020

The modern digital consumption is no more restricted to only one device. It has multiple device user groups which prefer different interactive modalities.
The modern digital consumption is no more restricted to only one device. It has multiple device user groups which prefer different interactive modalities.
Given this context, if a design pattern is conceived with only one input modality like a scroll wheel of a mouse, it is going to affect a lot of users, users with disabilities in particular. One such design pattern is infinite scrolling.

In a social media landscape, this is an amazing interactive method. But when its implementation spreads across e-commerce and other vital digital functions, then the users with disabilities will not benefit out of it.
It is important to stress the remedy of role=”feed” in this context, its application, what it can do or cannot so that the design can be beneficial to as many users groups as possible.

In my presentation, I am going to talk about:

  1. Introduce infinite scrolling
  2. Affected user groups with persona
  3. What ARIA offers as a remedy (role=”feed”)
  4. What this role can or cannot do
  5. How can this design accommodate user preferences
  6. Introduction of Additional switch feature to enhance this implementation
  7. Conclusion.
