I prefer the style of docs.lakefs.io: no animations, pleasantly zoomable. lakefs.io jiggles and is almost impossible to zoom. Please let's keep at least docs.lakefs.io accessible and pleasant, at the price of being uncool.
CSSTricks have a nice summary of the WCAG guidelines for animation.

03/15/2023, 1:45 PMjust for my understanding, does the duckdb animation fall into that bucket (inaccessible/distracting) too?
