Disable Scrolling: Your Chrome Extension to Stop Scrolling

Disable Scrolling is a specialized Chrome extension that aims to improve the reading and searching experience for users. It achieves this by temporarily disabling the scrolling function on the current website or page. This feature comes handy especially when you're searching for a term using 'Find' but don't want your current reading space to be disrupted - Disable scrolling lets your 'Find' function do its job while your reading space stays undisturbed.

Has no effect at youtube.com/shorts/... I thought I finally solved my issue :(
by Peter Danyi, 2024-11-05

I have a dual screen setup and whenever I play games I put youtube on the smaller screen, but when I play things like Skyrim and use the scroll wheel it ends up scrolling down on youtube as well moving the video out of view. Perfect fix

Exactly what I was looking for. Would you mind adding the option simply to the right click menu though?
