If you find unnecessary animations like the background rain annoying you might consider setting prefers-reduced-motion.
The site respects it.
Personally I don't mind motion but that background is straight up painful to look at.
Thanks for the hint, this is a useful to know setting. However your statement appears to be wrong, requiring reduced motion does not stop the background rainbow animation from happening. I am running Firefox and verified my prefers-reduced-motion setting in the example result box of https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/CSS/@media/pref....
Hacker News, ladies and gentlemen
Why are you on it if you're annoyed by it?
I didn't mind the colour changing background. However I did find the raindrops in the "At a glance" section to be very jarring and stopped me actually reading the key features - not what you want from a promotional page.
Side note - I think they’re asteroids and not raindrops. Dino(saurs) being the theme.
The animation in the "At a glance" section is called `rainfall` and the black oval below it (with the other animation) has class `rain-content`.
But your guess made sense :)
I enjoyed that part, as well as the header background. It’s fun!
