Stripe used to do these and I always thought it was cool but there might be a good reason they stopped.

Similarly, there might be a good reason YouTube is still using them? As with all things, the pattern may or may not apply to any particular app or implementation.

That said, I'm not in love with them on YouTube. They always catch my eye for just a moment after they're done loading about halfway, and makes me crazy.
