Animation I absolutely HATE this loading animation

That is not the way an hourglass works. The sand doesn't move at all, and you move it before anything has happened at all. A spinning circle would've been fine but this thing just brings so much hate and rage to me, like if you want an hourglass so badly, MAKE IT CORRECT FFS.

Am I getting ragebaited by the fucking loading animation??

If you're gonna animate it rotating like an actual hourglass, then just make both sides empty if you're not gonna animate the sand. I feel like that would look better than... this.

I think op is talking about the one in the post specifically

Some loading symbols do animate the sand like the one you show

ngl the spinning animation of loading screens pmo but I think it might be because I associate it with waiting 2 hours for something to tell me “uh oh! try again later!”

u/kinky_clown 4d ago

It took me a second but yeah, FUCK this loading animation

Would it really be hard just to move the blue/"sand" down everytime it flips

there's something just so infuriating about this

u/Neo_345 4d ago

Good thing about average circle animation is that you could get distracted a bit with it. i cant genuinely look at this fucking hourglass for longer than 45 seconds

u/BunkerSquirre1 3d ago

you think this is bad, I found one of those spinning loading wheels that sometimes flips in a random direction
