Former web dev here, you’re… right :-/ the only thing that angers me more than this pattern is when they decide to fuck up scrolling

My most hated one is not allowing me to right-click to open a context menu, or even worse, making right-click act the same as left-click, redirecting me to some page I never intended to go to.

Same. Whenever I visit a website and it has that ridiculous scroll-smoothing JavaScript, I get so annoyed because I have pixel-level trackpad scrolling on macOS and they're just making it feel terrible.
