      Absolutely agree. I really don't understand the hesitancy of building this. It's iOS' biggest advantage in user experience for me

      To implement in user space, need control of everything every frame. The Platform tells us that's not how we're supposed to use The Platform

      That's an absurdist reduction. We're investing in Animation Worklet to address this: https://github.com/WICG/animation-worklet/blob/gh-pages/README.md …

      This is going slower than I'd like, but it's simply wrong to suggest that we (at least those of us on chrome) do not see and understand.

      This is the first I've heard of this, & it seems promising, so thanks for pushing it. Re: slow, yeah it's 2017 and the web can't scroll :-(

      Well, the web *can* scroll, but too often requires a cleaner main thread than many apps/FWs can manage

      For instance, I often see apps badly timing DOM creation in their scrollers (because they aren't using something as good as <iron-list>)

      Indeed. I'd love to get away from the hundreds of half baked list implementations and just use a native component that is awesome

      Fair. That said, this problem is much worse in react apps I've traced. Everyone seems to make their own for some reason & it's hard.

      Yep, it's just hard. Having a React component that wraps a high perf native component is trivial. Would happily build that!

      I'll think more on this. I've showed away from driving high-level additions to the platform because the precedents are so poor
