Should I remove the infinite scroll?

Hello!
I have built an infinite scroll for the job board I am working on, but because of this feature, the footer is no longer accessible.
Should I replace the infinite scroll with a "load more" btn?
What do you think?

    This site is on a trajectory my friend. It looks explosive! Out of this world.

    Seriously. It's note-worthy. Congrats!

    And yeah, infinite scroll being removed is best. But maybe have a keyboard shortcut like Shift + M (for "More!") that people can hit to avoid the Fitts' law problem of having to take the mouse and center the cursor on the button... Of course the button's label should have the keyboard shortcut hint e.g. "Show More! (Shift+M)".

    Anyway, good luck Pierre. Hope it takes off. (Sorry, I'm done now, couldn't help add a last pun in there.)

      Haha, nice pun ;)
      The keyboard shortcut is an interesting idea, I didn't think about it, thanks!

    Yes, remove infinite scroll.

    Yes, I’ve managed to see your footer, and it's worth removing the infinite scroll. Maybe the good old pagination
