macOS Setup after 15 Years of Linux

It's incredible how sluggish animations can make a OS feel.

The first thing I do when I get a new Android phone is enabling the developer options and turning off all animations. The phone feels a lot faster then, especially switching apps.

I have more than one friend who I showed this and they suddenly didn't feel the need to replace their phone with a newer, faster one.

You can disable them also from Accessibility

I just found out this myself and giving it a try. Don't think I will miss the animations :)

I have found this setting to break some apps (e.g. Spotify, my bank's app) though.

Same here. Would be nice to be able to do it on an app-by-app basis, or add exceptions.
