[Semaphor]

What I’d like to have: A setting that says I prefer reduced motion. Not "none" motion. Reduced.

Recently, I saw some UI component framework with a sortable list. For anyone else, it moved the element from the old to the new position. For me, it just switched them out, which makes for far worse UX in that case.

If for some people any motion is bad, then give them a property, or even better, as someone else said, make the browser disable all animations (I do that for gif, webp etc. with a browser extension)

All I want is for sites to not waste my time with animations or make things harder to read with those dumb parallax effects (thankfully that fad did not last long). That’s why I have "prefers reduced motion".

I guess it’s a badly named property if everyone treats it like "prefers no motion".
