Reminder that it's not just VIMS but also hyper-vigilance. Any animation disrupts my train of thought, not just potentially makes me ill. Ideally, the user agent would allow the website visitor to choose the animation remediation method that they prefer rather than the browser manufacturer making the decision for them: - skip to the end - drop the animation and use underlying styles - step through keyframes with no transition (include being able to set limiting the number of keyframes and setting the minimum time for each key frame to display) - cross-fade between keyframes - don't change the animation, this one is important / already adjusted for reduced motion (letting the website visitor choose that they don't want the animation to display unless they actively click a play button) A potential issue with step through key frames would be that a website developer can specify an arbitrarily large number of key frames. With regard to don't change the animation, this one is important, I still don't want it automatically playing. I specifically want to click a play button. Automatically playing animations are disruptive to me. I read the log and, as mentioned, different people have different sensitivities. Unlike a couple folks quoted in the log, I am very much triggered by scroll-based animation and it will cause me to leave a website. One thing that was not mentioned and maybe even need to be a different Github issue is a matter of background animations, which generally occur in the form of a video. Again, these cause me to need to leave a website. -- GitHub Notification of comment by CharlesBelov Please view or discuss this issue at https://github.com/w3c/csswg-drafts/issues/7440#issuecomment-1648550087 using your GitHub account -- Sent via github-notify-ml as configured in https://github.com/w3c/github-notify-ml-config
