I scanned the updates hoping for this exact same thing, but alas did not find it there. I am not comfortable disabling SIP to fix this issue personally.

Yabai can eliminate it entirely (after it's updated for Sonoma), if you don't mind disabling SIP.

Yup, I do. I do use Yabai, sans that modification. Disabling SIP "just" to get speedier/no animation doesn't seem like a good cost/benefit.

If you're not concerned about losing other animations, you can enable the Reduced Motion setting in Accessibility preferences. It completely removes that animation.

Nope, it doesn't. It reduces it greatly, but it's still there. To disable it "fully" one has to disable SIP, and that's not a great idea.

Rather than "reduced" motion, I'd really look forward to "no" motion.

Like I had with i3wm... practically _instantaneous_ switch between spaces/virtual desktops.
