Animated Server Icons of Boosted servers Auto-Play option
I'd like to see the option to allow Servers which are boosted by nitro and have animated icons be able to be auto played in discord. I'd like to see it as an option because obviously not everyone's computer can handle it. It seems pointless to hover over it to see, so it'd be nice to just always have it moving.

I agree heavily with this; I think it's only fair to have a toggle on/off feature.
At the very least please make it so that when you have the server selected, the icon animation auto loops PLEASE.
It's a little frustrating that it almost feels like there's never a time that i keep my mouse over the icon to the server for long enough to see the animation play out all the way.

Yeah, we just hit level 1 and I was disappointed to see that you have to hover....

Agreed.

I can attest to this, especially now with Boosted server icons. An "Animate everything no matter the cost" button would be 10/10.
Server Icons, Avatars, and Emotes should all be animated when the window is Focused.5 -
Pretty sure the reason it only plays while hovering is because it would be too distracting for most people and probably take more RAM than it already does.
If they do make it show animated icons while you're not hovering they better allow you to disable it like animated emojis

I am signing this here in hopes Discord will hear our request. Please allow us to hype beyond any level previously hype-able! I promise not to abuse the GIF icon oh great and wise Discord gods, please please please!

It would be great to have an option to completely disable animated icons, like there is for animated emoji. So, the total set of options should be
Always animate | Animate on hover | Never animate
(And maybe also Animate on selected+hover?)3 -
I think those would be great options to have (what Eishiya posted)

Looking for related or similar requests, this is what I've found so far (Nov 4, 2020). Some are not specific to any single animated thing, but all deal with giving users better control/consistency regarding animated aspects. It seems strange I'm not able to find any response from the devs...

Bump!
Make this a toggle-able option for all users, but ON by default. As of now, the animated icons are pointless and nobody ever sees them. So much for a Nitro "incentive."
