Wasn't there a startup that basically did this, but instead of for privacy purposes, it was for creating fake influencer profiles you could use for marketing campaigns? This project feels like a great way to get your accounts banned from various platforms, because this is basically doing that, and platforms have at least a vague interest in banning such things. It tries to hide itself, but doesn't do a good job at it. MockLocationProvider can be easily detected, and so can UA/canvas spoofing. All of this basically screams "I'm running a bot farm", so expect it to be first in line when sites want to do a bot crackdown.
Why, exactly? The page looks visually identical when I disable that rule, but the performance skyrockets. I realize that it's probably vibecoded, but come on.

Not often you encounter a site that makes scrolling choppy.
Works great in my browser that hasn't been updated - except by me, mainly to keep it running - in about 10 years.
I'm pretty sure that's because the entire <main> of the site has an 8px Gaussian blur on it:

Ran recently into another site on here that scrolled fine on anything except Firefox. And this one seems to be fine on safari.
Firefox Android is fine albeit laggy. I don't get why one has to customize scroll behavior but I don't do mobile UX myself.
It's even fucked with JavaScript disabled.
it's slop which is notoriously willing to fuck with scroll
don't fuck with scroll
Chrome too

I like the idea (hate the site), but what does it do to my battery life?
