I was curious what "view transitions" are even about: https://www.w3.org/TR/css-view-transitions-1/

It's yet another 2.8k line specification solely authored by Google employees, introducing a brand new complexity monster (clones of ghost elements represented as a pseudo-element tree) to... make it easier to add fancy animations.

Now what I really miss is a "disable CSS animations" button. I find them very distracting and an unnecessary burden on battery life.

That is the generic way to implememt transitions. Alternative is playing css artist and handwrite every single animation. It is also complex.

I hate css animations too btw.
