A year's worth of floss picks is the same amount of plastic as just a couple of bottles/containers. If you feel bad about the plastic waste but can't find an alternative, you can always focus on getting fewer single-use plastic containers.
There are also wooden ones; still making trash but at that point it's equivalent to a bad toothpick habit lol
Do you know the product name?
There are also wooden floss picks out there, for those who don't have a printer but want to use less plastic.
I don't see them as scroll bar replicas; good ones are very narrow but high contrast, to easily offer a compact visual sense of article length -- rather than page length, an important distinction when there are cited sources, recommended articles, and a footer menu. Different functions.
IMO, they should coexist with a well-designed vertical scroll bar.
Say more about the shady turn for RPi?
Haven't kept up with them for years but that seems like important info
When I looked into them, a lot of people seem to speak highly of Shokz/aftershokz. I haven't used them so can't make a personal recommendation.
One thing to note is that if you want them for swimming you need to get ones with built in storage bc Bluetooth can't really penetrate water
