Suggestion: Use Tailwind Scrollbars Instead of Native Scrollbars

[jestinjoshi]

I think Maybe should use Tailwind scrollbars instead of native scrollbars. Using native scrollbars results in an inconsistent look and feel depending on the user's OS and browser. By implementing Tailwind scrollbars, Maybe can maintain a uniform design. Also, since Tailwind is already present in the system, there is no extra overhead in terms of performance or dependencies.

I created this issue to confirm whether this is something you would like to implement.

I have attached screenshots below to show the differences in scrollbar across different OS and browsers.

Chrome (Windows)

Edge (Windows)

@justinfar any thoughts on this?

@jestinjoshi neat idea!

I'm all for it, any way we can perhaps customize the scrollbar's width + color, and show it only when the user is actually scrolling?

@justinfar Hiding scrollbar until scroll is not a good UX practice, I think, as it can confuse users about whether the UI is scrollable. As far as width + colour is concerned, I think Tailwind scrollbar looks pretty sleek but yeah we can experiment with those.

This is what Tailwind scrollbar looks like:
