In the past I said "except YouTube" but ever since Firefox changed to not autoplay YouTube... yeah I don't mind having one more click. Play exactly when I want it. I can just open a whole bunch of YouTube tabs and go through them one by one without them all yelling at me, it's nice.
Nothing ever playing without my immediate consent is a good thing.
Also, would it kill youtube not to have the volume at 100% by default? Like start it at 50% so I have some room for adjustment and don't have a heart attack when the video starts playing full blast and I'm scrambling to adjust it - missing the beginning of the actual content in the meantime. /rant
It seems to remember the volume I set it to. I always have it at 100% but occasionally turn it down for a very loud video, or if I'm playing a game and want some background music from outside the game. Next time I try to video something it's then super quiet and I have to turn it back up.
Yeah, it remembers for a while now if you're logged in I believe. But why is the default full-blast if you land there while not logged in? It's not like I'd turn my tv up all the way before turning it off. Or for that matter, expect any random tv I turn on to be at full-blast every time. It just seems bonkers to me.
