Rage-scroll rate
Share of sessions with repeated rapid wheel, touch, trackpad, scrollbar, or keyboard-scroll attempts that do not produce meaningful progress.
Rage-scroll rate captures users fighting the movement model. It is the scroll equivalent of rage clicking: repeated attempts to make progress when the interface feels stuck, delayed, too slow, or unexpectedly locked.
Count bursts of wheel, touch, scrollbar, or PageDown activity where document position changes little, reverses unexpectedly, or remains inside a pinned sequence. Review this metric with recordings when possible because intentional rapid browsing can look similar.
How patterns use this KPI
| Pattern | How it's instrumented | Why it matters there |
|---|---|---|
| Scrolljacking | Repeated rapid wheel, touch, trackpad, scrollbar, or PageDown attempts without meaningful document progress | Fighting the scroll system is a direct signal that movement no longer matches user intent. |
