thanks it worked, I write option mistakenly.. mistake: "the pref ui.prefersReducedMotion = 0." correct: " ui.prefersReducedMotion = 0."

Firefox 63+ has support for "@media (prefers-reduced-motion)" to honor system settings to minimize the amount of non-essential motion.

In Firefox 78+ this includes the location bar breakout. In Firefox 80+ this replaces the tab loading indicator with an hourglass.

  • set the value to 1 if you want to block animations
    ui.prefersReducedMotion = 1
  • set its value to 0 if you want to see animations
    ui.prefersReducedMotion = 0
