I gave reasons why it could help the user themselves. (Here's another: for users learning Vim)
And why should it necessarily make things slower? The animation could be quite fast, and I don't see why such animations would necessarily need to block or hold up future inputs or animations. (I do think, though, that you'd need to actually try it out to see if it works in practice)
- Lio 8y agoI agree it’s possible to have animations that add useful information and don’t block the user. In practice they are rare, certainly in consumer products. I can think of more products with janky UIs than I can ones with insanely great UIs.
- brazzledazzle 8y agoI think they'd be great for new users but we'd need to be able to turn them off. No matter how fast and intuitive an animation is it's never going to be as fast as no animation.
