Pick up exactly where you left off

Some articles are long. You get halfway through something, your coffee break ends, and you close the tab. When you open Spoonfed later, the article is still there, but you're back at the top, hunting for where you were.

That's annoying enough that I built a fix for it.

Spoonfed now saves your scroll position as you read. Not just roughly, it stores the exact fraction of the way through the article you were. Come back five minutes later, five hours later, or the next morning, and the page will restore to where you left off.

How it works

As you scroll, the position is quietly saved in the background. There's no button to press, no manual save, it just happens. When you return to the article, the scroll restoration fires before the page renders, so there's no flash of the top of the article before jumping down.

It's one of those features that's invisible when it works and deeply annoying when it doesn't. The goal was to make it feel effortless.

Opting out

If you'd rather always start articles from the top, some people prefer that, there's a toggle in Settings to disable scroll restore. It's on by default.
