User-specific settings for AIM

David Postill requests the collapsing of deleted posts to be disabled for him; feel free to add more requests for settings.

I have problems watching the animations, they give me headaches, can they also be on user settings?

[ArtOfCode-]

Which animations, @ferrybig?

[ferrybig]

@ArtOfCode- The animations you get when a post is collapsing or expanding, I don't mind the collapsing, but I really can't stand the animations it gives

[double-fault]

@ferrybig I don't see any animations.. or maybe I'm not understanding which animations you are talking about. Could you post a video of your screen during the animations?

[j-f1]

@Fortunate-MAN Ferrybig is probably means the animation shrinking the deleted posts.

[double-fault]

@j-f1 ah, the collapsing of the reports. I'd agree with disabling that then.

For what it's worth, I posted a (very poor) animated GIF of this at https://gist.github.com/tripleee/49b029e091ae5e3260b1e395725faf06 in the incorrect belief that this was an issue with the FIRE userscript.

My suggestion would be to have a longer delay for the hover action so it doesn't happen so easily. Scurring across a few old posts (luckily) doesn't make them all jump, but when you try to home in on one of them with the cursor, it's very easy to misclick because something expands underneath when you move the mouse slowly and you're not exactly on top of the right one.
