## FAQ

### Where does Facebook stop after hover?

It finishes the cycle it is in (at most 2 s) and then rests on its first frame, so it never freezes mid-motion. Keyboard focus plays it as well; a tap on a touch screen does not.

### Is Facebook decorative?

By default it is aria-hidden. Pass aria-label="Facebook" to announce it as an image, or leave it hidden when the link or button it sits in has its own text.

### Can Facebook loop all the time instead?

Yes: pass interaction="loop". It then plays continuously; stays on the static first frame when reduced motion is preferred.
