Proposition: Setting to enable animations for emoji on panel and reactions menu only when hovering, as a less extreme alternative for disabling entirely (and thus not being able to preview what you're sending properly)
Reasoning: On desktop having emoji animations turned is a huge memory leak and on lower end computers it even freezes the client for a few second when quickly browsing through the packs.
Deactivating emoji animations helps, but when you have mostly animated ones, it means you can't properly preview them before sending or using them as reactions.
It would be nice to have a "hover only" setting for animations, that way most of them will be stactic, and animations will only load when the user specifically hovers over them.
