@simevidas Progressive enhancement (PE) makes sure people have a useful and usable experience during and after the origin trial (OT) phase. Even during the OT, there’s an API usage cap, so PE ideally should be part of your app.

@puekey I respectfully disagree regarding `scroll-behavior`. If you set it to `smooth`, you actually make the movement feel more natural (https://t.co/TQ4p5J5lDE). It’s unnatural motion (e.g., parallax scrolling) that potentially causes issues.
