Try grabbing the scroll bar with your mouse and pulling it down the page. Nope, apparently scrollbars aren't for that.
This doesn't seem to be designed with regular desktop usage in mind.

I don't know why but it seems to be perfectly acceptable to break the scrollbar these days.

I don't think it is. Famous is the first I've seen to complement reimplement (and fuck up) something as fundamental as scrolling.

What about the countless sites that have infinite scrolling (Facebook for example)? It's not as bad as Famous but still breaks it in my opinion.

Infinite scrolling doesnt break scrolling, it breaks backwards/forwards navigation.

It does both (infinite scrolling is a horrible idea). If you try dragging the scrollbar it will jump around every time more content is loaded and you lose your position on the page.

With that bounce-back effect it doesn't seem like it was designed with
usage
in mind.
