What exactly moves? I'm looking at the banner at the top, and nothing moves when I hover over the "Define settings" or "Accept all" buttons, or any of the text links in the banner (in Chrome, Linux).

Edit: turns out it only swaps under some conditions, according to the prettied code here [1]. One of those conditions is having a touch screen, which my laptop does.

I'm also using Chrome, and when I hover over "define settings" it swaps positions with "accept all"

Do you have JS diabled? For me they animate and swap.

It moves the button for me in Chrome. Do you have javascript disabled?

When I hover over the "Define settings" button, it swaps with the other button.

To me, all this cookie consent is just a stupid game. This one is at least fun.

The "Accept All" button moves when I hover over "Define Settings" but it's a bit flaky.

Same for me. I tried it on both Opera and Firefox (Linux desktop).

> I have a weakness for beautiful design

I take it to mean he's weak in this area. It's never cool to do stuff like this, unless it's a joke or a troll. I have he extension "I don't care about cookies" installed and he doesn't seem to know how to make it easy if we don't care about cookies.
