Having powerful machines would be one thing. I really implore you to try using a low end machine for a while and see how bad the web is. I currently use a 4gb 2015 MacBook Air and i often see Discord and other websites-masquerading-as-apps hogging upwards of 2 gigs of ram which is inexcusable. I can hardly believe that animations would contribute to lag (or perceived lag) especially because we can see a lot of completely native apps that have these "micro-interactions" and still feel fast and responsive.
On the other hand Ripcord, an alternate client for Slack and Discord sits at 50mb of RAM and single digit CPU usage.
