I actually love these smooth animations and transitions. But don't you think these animations are making websites slow and stuttery (if that's the word)?
I believe only display websites or landing pages will have some of these styles, with a focus on performance of course. Companies would have to find a healthy balance. Also, designers will sometimes have to fight developers before these designs become mainstream
As a designer I love the possibility to include these animations but at the same time, when I'm shopping I rather see a website without all of these details so I can concentrate on what I'm looking for and without worrying for these to load before scrolling. 😅
Yes! I actually mentioned this point in the video edit, but had to cut it out beause of the length of the video. Amazon, Ebay, etc are great examples of focusing on user and business needs over design trends
I have an entire box of foam panels lying in a box from a previous shift. Too lazy to put them up, but after this comment, going to put them up next week! Thanks for the feedback Jeremy
For me it's very hard to concentrate reading a text when nearby elements are moving. For focused tasks i'd rather go for static elements. Also, i think websiste with this kind of animations should include a button or swith to deactivate/activate them, making them more accessible.
I've seen more of such websites lately following these design patterns. Sometimes I feel trends can take time to catch up too. But yes, you have a point, only a few websites or apps follow them, however waiting for more to follow!
