(Author here) Sorry about this!
I'm seeing similar sticky scrolling in Safari on Mac for a narrow window (but it unsticks if I scroll fast enough...). I think this suggests something with the mobile view CSS. I'll keep investigating.
In the meantime, try reader mode. Sorry again and thanks for reporting!
Had the same issue, iPhone 15 in Chrome. Scrolling quickly didn't help. What did help: rotating into landscape and scrolling in the margins. Scrolling on the very right side of the screen also worked in portrait.
Once I scrolled down a bit, I was able to scroll normally afterwards.
On the content: I enjoyed your article! B&H being closed for Sabbath saved me from almost blowing $10k on camera gear a few years ago... everything in my cart, but couldn't check out. I wouldn't say I churned, but I also didn't come back to purchase because I had pre-buyers remorse.
As others in the comments have noted, though - I still come back and shop at B&H for other things, even though I've run into their closures. I actually like the humanity of it. For all the always-on-ness of the internet and websites... there's something innately "human" about something being closed, like B&H's site, that isn't upsetting to me.
I was gonna post “What if your website wouldn’t scroll?” But kudos to you for recognizing it and reproing the bug! Good article and found the references interesting
