Look in the upper right side. There is a mini snapshot of the page, with a blue outline showing the portion of the page that the browser can see. When you highlight text on the page, you can see it highlighted in the minimap.

There should be a picture of what you are supposed to see on the article[1]. It works on this page for me but some of the other articles do not show it. Seems weird because I'm not changing browsers in between.

Not working for me on macos.

otoh firefox has been really weird since the 115 update - rock solid before that, but now all kinds of weird graphic glitches and hangs.

Working fine here for me on macos, latest FF, uBlock enabled

ok, it works in private mode, so must be one of my plugins - maybe vimium.

Anyway this is definitely cool, but it's a shame you can't use it as a scrollbar.

There's a minimap-type scroll bar for the article to the right. There's an image in the article of how it looks.
