which do you think it is?
If your "high end" online store sets off some Javascript effect every time the user touches something, it might be worth asking why http://Amazon.com doesn't do this. Is it because Bezos doesn't know how to sell online, or because he doesn't have as good programmers as you?

your flashy animation aka distraction is Amazon’s optimization opportunity

I visited a high end website. They use a controlled scrolling speed. I lost my mind in 10sec and didn’t buy anything.

IMHO - Every store/business has a personality. The website and app should reflect them. It’s not what Amazon does or programming capabilities.

Ugh. That only makes it worse. If your personality is to confuse & distract me from doing the thing I want to do.... Your personality sucks. Why am I buying from you?

Monopoly so big that you don't give a crap about js effects.

> Monopoly Amazon is in e-commerce, tech and retail, which are among the most competitive market sectors that ever existed, maybe seconded only by fast-food.

None of those. I think the overuse of JavaScript is distracting, which diverts the user attention in the wrong place.

Are you implying that JavaScript effects are unnecessary for a successful online business? This feels like a trick question
