- foolfoolz 4y agothings like this violate the design principles values by novice and power users. novice users that use something once a week or month may enjoy additional visual cues and animations to be friendly and welcoming. low information density to not overwhelm. power users that use something every day or many times a day prefer things that are static, fast, and higher information density. this is from designing the user interface, 1995
- jw1224 4y agoAgreed, I wouldn’t want to see one of these every time I refresh my inbox. But this is a demo page, showing the capabilities of the animation library?
- wodenokoto 4y agoOn the other hand the springy scrolling and the animation when switching from profile to landscape are some of the key features in iOS.
- projektfu 4y agoSome people really like ketchup on pizza. I don’t. It’s a matter of individual taste.
- jw1224 4y agoSure, but, it’s an animation library? Kinda like saying you don’t like “photography”.
- projektfu 4y agoI don’t like the suggestions in the use cases. Like if you didn’t know about cameras and asked, why? And someone showed you all the grotesque images they can capture, as what they think is a beautiful demo. As a bonus, their camera makes them more grotesque with less effort.
- yreg 4y agoprefers-reduced-motion is there for you (and anyone using these charming animations should obey the setting)
- projektfu 4y agoThanks, already use it.
