Reduced Motion “In The Wild”

This article analyzes the Animal Crossing website's implementation of a reduced motion mode. It details how the site uses a custom toggle and the `prefers-reduced-motion` media query to replace large, potentially triggering animations with safer effects like cross-fades, improving accessibility for users with motion sensitivities. It cites other examples and references a related conference talk on inclusive motion design.
