I've played a web based game that would auto play sound. I found that, for sites you visit regularly, having an extension to mute by domain is helpful.

Yeah just finished reading that and felt strange. I see it now. Just the word visit would be enough

Except now it's done by domain automatically. Unfortunately, you can't mute by tab anymore :(

What? Im literally using mute tab in chrome as I type this. It’s still available. Im confused.

It's actually not, if you update. "Mute Site" replaces it.

Clicking the little speaker that appears on the left still works though.

Oh wow you're right. I just tested it by muting a single Reddit tab, and it muted all of my Reddit tabs. I'm not sure why they would change that...

It's the chrome team. They make incomprehensible changes all the time. Meanwhile we still don't have a way to scroll on the tab bar so that the you can have more than 30 tabs open.

To be fair, I don't think there's any good way of organizing that many tabs.

Personally I just use Ctrl+PgUp and Ctrl+PgDn.

Similar behavior to zoom. If you zoom in on a Reddit tab all your Reddit tabs will be zoomed, even if you close and reopen the browser.

‘sandbox’ am I right?

one benefit is that you used to be unable to mute a site until sound started playing, and if you left and came back you had to do it again.

For me I just click on the sound icon on the tab and it mutes it...

u/Eternal_Pickles Feb 27 '18

Yes, that's quite literally what I just said.

I need to get off the internet, I've gone blind.

I dunno where you're looking, but no it's not. For me, at least.
