SUMMARY When clicking on a file, the background color changes its brightness quickly from brighter to darker blue (or accent color), which doesn't feel pleasant to me but very noisy. As I don't see any additional value or information in this kind of feedback to the click, I'd kindly ask to consider removing it. This kind of feedback is also inconsistent, with other selections, e.g. with the listview of SystemSettings or the InfoCenter.

I use Double Click to open a file fwiw.

This is a click feedback effect and it's expected to be there. > This kind of feedback is also inconsistent, with other selections, e.g. with the listview of SystemSettings or the InfoCenter. Correct, we need to go over all our selection items and make them work similarly. Sorry that I do not have the answer you'd like to hear.
So you would like to make them all flashy? I'm not sure if this is the right direction, but yeah, we'll see what's the general feedback over time.
We could tie it into animation settings, because it technically is a feedback animation. So if user has animations off, it would turn off too.

Generally, when animations are turned to instant or have an option with "Show click feedback" ? Of course I'd prefer the latter :D I think it would be useful to gather more voices and discuss this with others devs and users. Maybe it's just me in the end, who doesn't like it and then we end up with option-creep for nothing. :)
> when animations are turned to instant Yeah, that's what I meant. And I do agree that having flashy things can be bothersome to some people. Maybe we need a system-wide "avoid flashy effects" accessibility setting. I don't really have solutions at the moment, but those are my ideas for it. I wouldn't mind revisiting this in future when there's more people giving feedback. It's of course also possible that the effect is just too intense, and we can tone it down a bit. :)
