Can reproduce Confirmed - Bug replicated exactly as expected, although this could be turned into a settings option for those that don't want to see constant animations playing in my opinion. - canary build 649 (f01b7c0), Electron 41.2.2, Linux 7.0.3-arch1-1 (x64), desktop canary 0.0.122, locale en-GB
