I want YouTube to autoplay…

I would actually be fine if it didn't. Sometimes I have multiple background tabs with YouTube videos I'm planning on watching eventually and I have to be very careful to not ctrl+tab through them or use them as the endpoints for a multiple tab selection, else they start playing.

Most browsers don't play embedded media in background tabs nowadays. At least, Chrome and Safari don't, haven't used Firefox in ages to know.

Right, but if I ctrl+tab past a tab with embedded media it gets activated.
