It does exactly what it says it does. Easy-peasy. BUT the thing that cuts the usefulness half is the fact that as soon as you scroll, it stops its function and everything on the page moves again. I'm not a programmer. So, I'm ignorant to just how difficult it actually might be to fix that. But OMG, I really wish I could scroll through a frozen page.

Works great! Took me a while to figure out that I was restarting the animations by pressing Esc too often - thought you had to press it again after each time you scrolled. What a relief!! Seriously, WHO wants animations and WHO thinks they're a good idea??

Works. At first I was annoyed that the animations continued as I scrolled, but actually that's a useful hint that a particular image is animated, and that I might like to un-pause to see what it's showing. Great work.

Works quite well. Of all the extensions I've tried this is the best one by far. Esc stops the animations. Yes, when you are scrolling, the animations move but as soon as you stop scrolling the animations freeze. I don't mind the animations moving when I am scrolling because after all the whole screen is moving because I am scrolling. I especially like that the single click of esc is all it takes and the animations stop instantly. No waiting for a screen reload.

This is my list of "must have" extension. I want to support sites by not blocking adds, but I don't want full video and high animation adds vying for my attention (looking at you nexusmods.com). The only thing I would add would be the ability to set a custom key bind, but the escape key is fine.

Great extension! I'm using it with Brave. I really didn't want to block all ads since it affects sites revenues, but also didn't want all of the flashing colors and moving objects on the screen. This works really well. If there is one wish, it would be that the shortcut could be remapped. I've been using AutoHotKey to map escape to the mouse's side button, but most people don't use AHK.
