I'm not interested in this change because I feel it doesn't add much for two of the three buttons:

• "I want to get involved!" - is directly below the nav bar, scrolls very slowly to move a short distance
• "Projects" - is next, scrolls very slowly to move a short distance

So that leaves us with one button that scrolls a long distance. I feel that this is trying to solve the wrong problem and we should look at pagination or a different way to present a large list of projects.

Leaving this open for a bit but without more context I'm going to close this out...

[KeshavSingal7]

Ah I see, that makes sense. We can try pagination to solve the problem. One option/idea can be to add a scroll down button (just like how we have a scroll up button) to reach the "maintain a project section". We can remove the navbar.
