There seems to be a type a user who perceives any kind of animation as sluggishness. Before I switched to macOS, I used to hang out in #kde. From time to time someone would come in and complain about the sluggish UI. They'd often list specs that were impressive at the time.
I'd instruct them on how to globally increase KDE's animation speed. That almost always "fixed the issue".
I'm not sure what it is, but for some users animations are indistinguishable from lag.
