On screen snowflakes

I know this is the Christmas season and all, but is there a way I can disable the snowflakes? I already have problems with floaters in my eyes, and this isn't helping matters. As a last resort, I'll have to avoid this forum until after the holiday's, which I'd rather not do.

Thank you for the disable info. Appearance-wise the snow flakes are a pleasant touch, but the animation causes my laptop more work and it gets too hot to use in my lap and the battery runs down significantly faster. Just FYI.

Yea, maybe if you don't have any real ones to look at or shovel outside!

I think it's a nice touch; I don't suffer from floaters though, so I understand that.
Knew those lights would be back this year! Tis the season😁

I appreciate the fact that we are given the option on the lights and the snow.

I use my phone and for some reason I can't see the snow. The lights are cool though.
