It was until the animated insects. I threw my phone

Sorry guys haha!! I intended the insects to come without prompting only on scroll pause but for debug purposes of the article I had set them to once every 15ish seconds[0]. I thought it was really great and love it personally as it really gets the AAA factor in, though I should probably respect use-reduced-motion lol

There's something about those animated hoppers that fills me with nostalgia about the early web.

Maybe prompt the user if they like bugs and then add the auto-hop (and more) bugs to those who say yes?!

Random yet on topic, I found[0] the tiniest hopper I've ever seen today hitching a ride on my hoodie!

Loved them. Wish they were more realistically animated :)

Gotta give credit, the gimmick is not superfluous.

I don’t enjoy horror movies. But the locust was a horror!

This was exactly my response

Jesus, that was a shocker for sure. I slapped my screen in reflex.
