Determine if a user prefers reduced motion of user

As a Roblox developer, it is currently too hard to determine is a user prefers to reduced motion or not.

This is similar to detecting whether or not users have set, or removed motion from their settings. Having this feature is important for accessibility reasons.

If Roblox is able to address this issue, it would improve my development experience because it would allow me to create more accessible games.

Iā€™m current working on a game of my own, and I would love to be able to implement a feature in my game that automatically disables certain animations in the UI (at least until the user explicitly sets this setting themselves) based on the OS-level preference for reduced motion.

I think accessibility is an important part of game development (and other applications of the Roblox engine), this feature would make a great addition to the arsenal that developers have access to when creating experiences on Roblox.
