Setting your own directives
If you’re a user, how do you specify that you want websites to hear your request for ‘prefers-reduced-motion’? When digging into this, I suspected it would be a setting that you adjust in your web browser, but it turns out that it’s setting you change in your operating system.
- In Windows 10: Settings > Ease of Access > Display > Show animations in Windows.
- In macOS: System Preferences > Accessibility > Display > Reduce motion.
