> Why sticky headers annoy me
> 
> I use an 11" MacBook Air, which means that I don't have much vertical screen space. The 50 pixels taken up by the sticky header could have been three lines of text.
> 
> I also normally scroll down using the space key, which scrolls just less than one full viewport at a time. When you cover up part of your content with a sticky element, that means that the space key scrolls too far down. Then I lose my position and have to scroll back up.
> 
> Finally, I just don't care right now about navigating your website, or following you on Twitter. I'm trying to read. Let me focus on that for now, please.
