If you're wondering why you might want to use this instead of just launching Neovim directly in a terminal, then for me the answer is performance. Everything is silky smooth, much smoother than in Kitty/Alacritty. And to disable those annoying animations, just put this in your config.

  vim.g.neovide_cursor_animation_length = 0
  vim.g.neovide_scroll_animation_length = 0
