Tell me you've never helped seniors with tech, without telling me you've never helped seniors with tech.
And I don't just mean the person answering this question. I also mean whoever decided to remove this option.

1. Google forums question, titled: "How to stop scrollbar from hiding" with text: Trying to help my grandma, the scrollbars disappear when not hovering over them with the cursor. She uses an old trackball mouse and will not change so she doesn't have a scroll wheel. the setting "chrome://flags" "overlay scrollbars" doesn't show up at all, even when I reset the settings. Should I move her to a different browser or is there a setting that will help? ChromeOS doesn't seem very unfriendly. With metadata: "This question is locked and replying has been disabled" and "I have the same question (8)" Recommended Answer from "Kevin (Snails), Diamond Product Expert", with text: That flag was removed in 2019. Something will have to change. I suggest she get used to the touchpad. It may take a little while, but once she gets used to it I suspect she'll find it much easier to scroll with two fingers gently on the touchpad than clicking a scrollbar and dragging.

This revelation brought to you by an associated Mastodon filter failure. Couldn't figure out at first why I was seeing a post. 😅
