never forget that furries and queer people are the ones who actually rule the mastodon fediverse

Science reveals the secret to extreme wealth: SHEER DUMB LUCK.
“The results are something of an eye-opener. Their simulations accurately reproduce the wealth distribution in the real world. But the wealthiest individuals are not the most talented (although they must have a certain level of talent). They are the luckiest. And this has significant implications for the way societies can optimize the returns they get for investments in everything from business to science.”

For Mastodon, we added an explicit user setting for "prefers reduced motion" (https://github.com/tootsuite/mastodon/pull/5393), but this is cumbersome and isn't scalable across the entire web. Nobody's going to configure NYTimes and The Guardian and every other website to do this.
Imagine if users could just do a one-time setting in their browser, and have a reasonable expectation that websites would honor this setting. And imagine if web authors could just use a single CSS media query to support it.
