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?

If you install 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.

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.
