Am I mistaken or is the overlay scrollbar the default now and its flag gone?

  Just a reminder that the scrollbar availability can be down to the designer of the web page or ad.

    No, it's down to me turning on a flag that is no longer available. The overlay scroll bar option is no longer available and that's a no no in my book. HotCakeX

Adrian, it does not seem like you are mistaken.

  Drew1903 Actually, it appears that I was mistaken. The flag for the overlay scrollbars was removed from Chromium dev builds v78 and up. The reason the overlay scrollbar appears to be the default for you and I is simply that we had the flag set when we updated to the version where the flag is removed from edge://flags. However, the default behavior seems to be in fact to the old-school scrollbars, not the overlay scrollbars.

    That's odd, the new update should have done a better job cleaning the old flags..
