Sounds like a terrible idea. Like...cool. I decided to move my head around to stretch my neck and now I've lost my position on the document I was reading.
I'll keep my scroll wheel.
Voluntarily moving the repetitive motion of scrolling from my hands to my neck felt the opposite of ergonomic.
Curious how this is different.

Tell me what the thing IS! It's shockingly common for READMEs or About pages to already assume the reader knows what the product/project is.
> ScrollPods lets you scroll hands-free on your Mac with your AirPods in a precise, smooth, continuous, dynamic and inconspicuous way.
That's BELOW the viewport of my browser. So to figure out what the product is, I have to scroll. Maybe that's by design?
Honestly one sentence at the beginning explaining that "ScrollPods" is software that lets you use airpods (or compatible headphones) to scroll would be really helpful

Hah, there's a wall of text that starts with the developer's life story (whooo cares), some graphic that didn't explain anything. Read the conclusion and ask myself "did they implement a dictionary app?", and I had to click "Get ScrollPods" and navigate away from the page and guess it's something to do with ears/headphones and scrolling.
The text "lets you use airpods (or compatible headphones) to scroll would be really helpful" is also not very specific, mentioning the gyroscope would make it clear.
