Molly Whitei am so over the web design trend where every piece of text on the page has to animate in
web devs spent years agonizing over time to FCP only to now make people wait for their unnecessary animation to finish before visitors can actually read anything

okay i love you all but by my math we’ve had a few years of animating in Every Single Block Of Content as the user scrolls down a web page, idk let’s maybe take a minute and look over the data

a year later and it's only gotten worse

Phil Giammattei@molly0xfff @beep it feels very much like a signal for “we spent a lot of money on this site” without conferring any user benefit whatsoever
@molly0xfff the internet’s tagline, right there 😭
Jamie McCarthy@beep @molly0xfff Months ago I started responding by scrolling to page bottom and back up, to get all its animation out of its system. Sometimes this even works
@jamiemccarthy oh no jamie
