well given the sites still new and it's a very small team (one person and a handful of volunteers iiirc) it's among the reasons i've been kinda waiting and watching
honestly tho i'm willing to give it time since buzzly turned into a dumpster fire and the last two sites to come died out coz of a similar workload situation
i know it looks like mostly furries on the front page but i think that had to do with what folks joined during the closed beta and how many followers they got and then whatever the featured algo was around then since dev focus has been on sorting out bugs and keeping the site functioning
about the only other place i've been keeping a loose eye on was artfol since they finally seem to be working on a desktop site now because as nice as it's community has been and as neat as the app has been mobile only is crap for my workflow
you've got fair points on the excess animations among some other details that bog down the loading but again it's why i wanna wait n see
