Except "Reduce Motion" is one of the most well-known and praised setting, it has been passed on as a tip to increase the overall snappiness for as long as the setting existed.

To the point people regularly ask for a stronger setting to straight disable animations and not just reduce them.

I used to be a huge fan of disabled animations on Linux, but unfortunately many websites end up being completely unusable. Somehow the animations affect functionality. Probably the developers never test their software with disabled animations.

So now I just have the setting to be super fast, but not disabled. Works perfectly well.
