Is your proposal related to a problem?

Yes, when writing a large post, users face the inconvenience of having to scroll to the top of the page to access the format buttons. This disrupts the writing flow and makes it difficult to format the text effectively.

Describe the solution you'd like.

I propose implementing a feature that enables scrolling only the text window when the mouse is over it, instead of scrolling the whole page. This would keep the format buttons in place and within reach, allowing users to conveniently access them while staying within the text window, improving the user experience and making it easier to format large posts.

Describe alternatives you've considered.

An alternative solution could be to add a sticky toolbar at the top of the page that contains the format buttons. This way, users would have easy access to the formatting options regardless of their scroll position.
