Description

Problem

The bouncing-arrow__button on the landing page still points downward at the bottom of the screen. while looking the codebase I found that there's code to handle this situation and that the btn hides when it reaches footer, but becasue of some bug it was not working,

The Bug

the footer calculation is fine, the problem was that the calculation was not being triggered by the page’s real scroll event.

Would love to get this issue assigned.
