I have the "always show sidebars" setting selected in the System Settings, yet far too occasionally, they'll just not be there, making scrolling quite laborious, as pushing on the top of my mouse is very inconsistent.
Why this simply feature is most often not working on Apple's own Safari, is even more puzzling.

Sometimes it's worth a try to just toggle the setting to a different setting, and then toggle it back to:
System Settings > Appearance > Show scroll bars > Always
OK, I've toggled the settings. I have no idea what the first option, "automatically based up on mouse or trackpad" means. I checked that, and the scrollbars never appeared. The other, "when scrolling" did, and when I switched back to "always", they came back on here, so I'll see how well it keeps to it, on other pages.
Another wack thing occurring, has been when I move my mouse down the bottom of a window, it sometimes suddenly becomes an entirely different site! And not one that I have open, or even recently had open! This always shocks me (& ****** me off, as I lose whatever I was in the middle of doing), as I've never, in 30 years, seen anything like this happen! And it keeps on doing it, as it did again today, it's like it hits the bottom and triggers a whole different page to open, almost like a butt call on a cellphone... Any idea what is causing this, & how to fix it?
In fact, there's no scrollbars on THIS PAGE, Apple's own support site! SMH?
Oh, soon as I wrote that, now suddenly they appeared... why weren't they there from the start?
maybe if the length of the page does not exceed the size of the display it does not display scrollbars because there would be nowhere to scroll to?
Why do the scrollbars disappear on some pages?
