The space animation lag is mind boggling. Not only is it a half second, but it locks keypress until finished. Any Apple devs (or anyone) here who can comment about why they removed the expose-animation-duration option?

I'd love some insight, too. I was just trying to disable the delay this morning. Even with the "Reduce Motion" option checked, the delay is too long.

  I went through the same and ended up disabling ProMotion on my 16 MBP because a bug makes this animation run twice as long on 120 FPS screens.

    that does work but what other downstream impact will this have? Not familiar with ProMotion.

If you install yabai (https://github.com/koekeishiya/yabai https://github.com/koekeishiya/yabai) it has a feature that can completely disable spaces switching animations - but it does require partially disabling SIP (worth it for yabai, IMO).

If you change spaces using the keyboard shortcuts like Ctrl+1,2 etc. (they might not be set to that by default.. it's 'Switch to Desktop 1' etc in the settings), then there is still a shorter animation, and there is no input delay when switching.
