Agree. What a BS feature. Wastes time. It is very distracting also. I am done giving kudos if the spinning feature remains.  Come on developers, stop wasting time on petty distracting useless changes. 

Dear product managers at Strava, please do some UX testing with actual athletes… you probably meant well but the recent UI changes have been quite unfortunate overall. 😐

(That swirling thing is making my eye twitch!)

Edit to add: I just saw today's date. It must be it. Please, let it be it… 😂

Spinning kudo sux

The twirly kudos are an absolute nightmare… It makes me dizzy and anxious. Are we at kindergarten? I’m just going to stop giving any kudos so I don’t see them.  

April Fool's 100%. And a good one, going by the reactions I've seen online. Or so I hope 😂 

Please make the spinning kudos stop! It’s super annoying!!!

If i can't disable this animation, i will have to stop giving kudos:-(

I HATE the spinning kudos button and so does everyone I know.  Please take it off and start testing things before you make changes. So many updates lately have been awful.

PLEASE get rid of the spinning kudos button. It’s awful! I am going to stop giving kudos or greatly decrease it. I hate it, wastes time, and is annoying.

It has gone for me, hurrah! Just a little wiggle now. 

omg YESSS! phew - it looks like someone just had a proper sleep in and turned off the April fools prank only now 😀

If you give kudos from the STRAVA website instead of the app, there’s no thumb animation.  It’s probably a mostly useless suggestion since most folks are using the app, but thought I’d mention it anyway.
