yeah I like your idea. I spent the last hour trying to figure out how to get nostrgram.co to run with me in seamonkey and failed, its the only browser i use that i know can natively block images. i blocked i.imgur.com and was excited to see how much it cut down on the noise.
i've got some visual processing stuff, but its not actually a disorder, i just use my visual cortex differently than most people do, so seeing something animated and looping does indeeed drive me bonkers. :)
your idea would be helpful on several fronts, and indeed on data use for mobile.
I'm a fan of "old internet" where things very much were mostly static.. hahaha..
When gifs came out, they were also much longer, for the most part, most people made them for at least 8 seconds, now some of them are literally .8 second loops, and i think you may understand the frustration there.
it's more of a "when content is persistent" but also when the timeline just gets busy with all that at once, you open it and it's just... too much. :D
Maybe unlock could help in the browser too?
ublock, ad blocking software I meant. Can also block anything you want.
i think that required excessive browser permissions, but i dont recall. :) isnt that the same one as "ublock origin"?
