I'm doubt this will be merged since animated avatars is a paid feature and people basically pay to ALWAYS annoy you with them. I guess you're better to send this to some fork. |

Yeah, all those accessibility options to reduce flashing are for wimps! Once your epileptic seizure is over, just get up off the floor, dust yourself off, and keep using it like nothing happened😆 |

I have read the CONTRIBUTING.md, so I am aware that new UI elements are forbidden from being in PRs.
If you consider adding this option as such, let me know, and I can rework it to be under the existing
Interface animationstoggle (which I do actually otherwise want to be on), and after the PR is merged I shall open a new issue about separating it into two.
