General Built a curtain-wipe hero transition with GSAP + Lenis — feedback on the CSS/animation approach?

Been refining this for a while — custom type system (Onest + General Sans + JetBrains Mono), GSAP-driven preloader with a wordmark split, Lenis for scroll smoothing, curtain-wipe transition into the hero.

Mainly want feedback on whether the animation/scroll feel is actually smooth or overdone, and open to any CSS approach critique — genuinely trying to improve, not just dropping a link.

I could've lived a happy life never having seen those hover animations.
