The Extinction of the Scrollbar | UX Magazine
Since the early days of GUIs, scrollbars have been built into windows so designers could just take them for granted. However, as the prominence of system scrollbars has reduced, designers need to be more conscious of them, and understand the benefits of scrollbars that are lost when they’re not shown. For all platforms, it’s increasingly up to designers to decide whether to use scrollbars, how to format them, or how to use other methods to replace the many benefits of this once-indispensible element.
