I don't universally dislike the Throbber, if that's what it's really called.
I have incredibly negative memories of the Netflix one, on cheap TVs with poor WiFi, which had a percentage which meant nothing.
It's used a lot in Android apps and it stresses me out on occasion when I'm in a rush.
Chromium on Android seems to use it well enough when reloading a page.
Often it feels like a jagged interruption in the application and like something is broken or out of place.
No more relentless hourglass, no more endless toilet flush, no more spinning beach ball. May they all suffer endless guru meditation.
no more throbbing!
