The issue is from early April and still open lol

Was the animation vibe coded by any chance?

Instead of spinners, you should use progress bars. When the endpoint of a process is unknown, you should just have a ticker that displays an increasing number. In codex, for example, just show me the number of tokens read or generated so far. It gives me feedback that the process hasn't frozen, and it provides useful information. What an easy and cheap solution!

We should go back to the 8 frame wristwatch from the old Mac days. 🕛🕑🕒🕓🕕🕖🕘🕚 perhaps that will save resources.

Pretty sure I've seen this exact problem in many versions of web browser with their loading throbbers.

I still wouldn't call them "useless". The visual feedback that something is happening is useful.

That's... an expensive loading spinner.

Crypto sites are even better: it takes them like 5 seconds of desktop CPU to load a fucking chart.

Ngl I had ai make me a portfolio template using hermes (never used threejs, have used blender, wanted a reference for certain visual styles), now I'm worried it unnecessarily eats performance and I won't be able to figure out how, not really an issue, but ai makes it harder to learn sht because you have to backtrack to find out whats wrong Ai Generated Site

All apps developed by AI use useless, annoying, battery draining animations. That’s why you have to close them once you’re done if you want any battery life at all. The Suno app will chew through 50% of my battery in an hour.
