Fun but still didn't tell me who the "best" player is.

There's no ultimate best player/build. When you factor in that each cart has different stats depending on the terrain, there's a "best" build for each track.

Dependent on your play style and which of the 3 main attributes you care about.

Did you even read the post?

The site is really broken on mobile.

I cannot be the only one who atrongly dislikes this bloated web design. I hit back after scrolling a bit

I did the same but not because i dislike it, because it is just broken, layout constantly shifting and so on.

Until recently I thought I hated sites that messed with the scroll out of principle, but then I found a handful of them that do a good job of it. This is one of them.

This is a good job? It takes me a half dozen scroll actions to get each sentence of text. I'm not risking a carpal tunnel flare-up just to get through effectively one paragraph of content.

The key here is to have a foreground layer that always responds to scroll and informs the background layer based on its position

No, you're not. A lot of the web is becoming increasingly unusable for me because of things like this.

Can you tell me what’s going on? I tried my best to make it work on every device, but handling mobile is hard, and especially when you’re messing with interactivity and 3D.

In Firefox reader mode, there's like 5 paragraphs of text. I am unable to digest the content on the website itself. Can someone confirm if the 5 paragraphs is the whole content or if I have large parts of it missing?

The article includes interactive graphs and scrolling animations that explain them, as well as data.

Turn off reader there are graphics along with the paragraphs. Reminds me of the complaints that used to be super common from people religiously refusing to enable javascript and complaining when breaking the site breaks the site.

Why do you think people refused to enable javascript?
rtkwe 7 hours ago|||
I saw a lot of people saying various things along the lines of "not running strangers code on my machine" and some "you should serve me the site working even if JS is disabled". The exact reason doesn't really matter it's more that if you're intentionally gimping the website you don't really get to complain about the site not loading.

I don't refuse to enable JS. I do, however, refuse to use website with broken scrolling. It makes me physically sick.
rtkwe 6 hours ago||
Does this site do that to you?
Xirdus 5 hours ago||
Very much so. It's one of the worst cases (but not the worst, not even the worst this week) I've seen around here.

What's broken about the scroll? For me it acts like basically any other scrolling presentation design used on hundreds of different websites.
Xirdus 3 hours ago||
I guess the whole idea of "scrolling presentation design" is broken? I certainly wouldn't mind if it stopped being a thing. It feels like 90% of websites that I find annoying as of late are of this type.

This page has some elements that scroll and some elements that don't scroll. And some elements that switch between scrolling and not scrolling. And some animations are controlled by scroll position, meaning they bounce back and forth while I try to find my bearings on the scroll wheel. Everything is fighting for my attention all at once, which prevents me from focusing on anything in particular. Most of all, it prevents me from focusing on the scrolling itself - and scrolling requires extreme focus here considering you never know what will happen and how much you need to scroll for it to happen. Is text going to slide in? Is a picture going to suddenly pop up? Is an existing picture going to transform to something else? Will it transform gradually as I scroll, or is it going to do it all suddenly in one step?

In short - it breaks the UI metaphor of scrolling an infinite roll of paper, and that in turn breaks my brain. I just can't follow what's happening, there's too much non-scrolling action happening when I scroll. There's also too much empty space between paragraphs.

It looks like it. There are four images that pop up and start animating numbers, and those aren't visible in the built in reader. I use Tranquility Reader which ime tends to do a bit better, but it still wasn't readable. Looking at the source, that content seems to be created only on scroll with javascript, so it won't be able to be read accessibly. I had to close it so I can't say what else is missing.
