After having used this, I find the loading animation a bit jarring for two reasons:
- I never experience a large delay on these cards - both on Meta and on my own site they typically load in less than half a second. The animation just adds an extra ‘flash’ to the screen.
- This is a personal taste, but the animation feels too ‘massive’ to me. The card is quite large and there’s a lot of ‘moving pixels’ - this is especially true on mobile.
I can appreciate that this is useful for some sites, but I’d rather not use it on mine. Can I disable the animation with some custom CSS?
And for this too please 
I guess I’m more of a minimalist.
