Experimenting with new native SVGs to bring into Mastodon core. Instead of the CSS hacks we use in the Mastodon Bird UI, these SVGs provide a more natural solution.

The CSS sprite-based ones are fine and serve their purpose as a theme layered over Mastodon, but I miss a more native approach for the large numbers we have in the posts in our Mastodon fork. The Mastodon team can later decide whether to use these animations, as they will be built against the main branch.

What can I say, I like appealing micro-integrations.
