Skeleton Screen or Loading Animation

Question

I'm designing a loading screen for a website application. I'm having two options for this:

I haven't known how to choose one of them yet due to some reasons:

I can't find any article that argue about using Skeleton Screen.
There're many things need to consider when designing loading animation: UI Copy, Animation, Brand Identity.

Therefore, I can't decide which one is better than other yet. Hope to learn something today :D Thank you guys!

You should quote relevant parts of the website you linked because links might stop working and content become unavailable.

Its compared and explained in this article. Seems skeleton screen is a bit better than classic animations.

One of the idea could be also that you use both. So skeleton tree that has animated bars somehow..
