MODERATORS
The important thing the article is missing, is that you should always respect the prefers-reduced-motion setting. Some people just don't like animations; either because they are distracting, or because they don't want to waste battery/cpu on useless things (looking at you, spotify player, using 15% of my cpu for some animated bars...)
