I understand your point and it makes sense. In my opinion this is good practice of CI and steady design because you have the footer on every page and in the unlikely event of loading the last set of articles and reaching the end, this would signalize the end of articles and comes back to the point of consistent design again.
So you so its fine to have unreachable elements which you do see sometimes? I don't think thats good practice in any way. The footer should be taken away and only a loader should be shown.
Consistency through pages is important, but having everything reachable which you can see is even more important.

So totally fine in my opinion.
I don't think we are going to agree on this.

I understand your point. I personally don't care much about the footer on DEV but I can relate to your view on this.
Let's see what the discussion brings and if it will be changed 😊
