I created Meteor Toys, available at http://meteor.toys

It's been very good to me, but also trending down as people seem to be diversifying from Meteor. Certainly not what I expected when I got into it.

The story for it is a simple one: I solved some of the annoyances during development for myself with by making a devtool, and then open sourced it.

The reaction was very positive and encouraging. Between the opportunity to make more tools, and the downside of having to maintain them, I decided to create paid tier for the tools.

Website background becomes black as soon as I scroll down, making all the text unreadable and the entire site unusable. Chrome 53.0.2785.143 on OS-X 10.11.6

Same here with Opera 40.0.2308.81, on OSX 10.11.6.

Made a quick screencast showing the problem:

(and yeah, I haven't bothered to set up https on that box ;>)

Update - Same problem happens with all 3 browser extensions disabled. (https everywhere, ublock origin, privacy badger)

Hey thanks for the heads up! This seems to be a bug with the latest version of Chrome. Until I figure it out, please try on an older version or Safari/Firefox.

53.0.2785.143 on OSX 10.11.3 is fine. Perhaps an extension is throwing it off?

Same blackout issue for me. OSX 10.9.5 Chrome 53.0.2785.116

I just updated to 10.11.6 like the original reporter (thanks for that, Apple stopped nagging me I guess?) and still can't reproduce it on my end. Does it do it for either of you in incognito?

[tmnvix]

Same issue with incognito.

This is what I'm seeing on Linux/Ubuntu in Chrome Version 53.0.2785.143 (64-bit) (including incognito mode): http://www.awesomescreenshot.com/image/1689878/3854f0ab61741...

Here's an error I'm seeing: Uncaught ReferenceError: Mousetrap is not defined. Not sure if that would have any bearing.

when you say 'diversifying from Meteor', what is going on here?

[stockkid]

I think he means that the number of people using Meteor to build apps is decreasing.

I migrated my side project away from Meteor and write about why and how: http://stories.remotebase.io/post/rewriting-without-meteor/
