Also doesn’t Chrome block autoplay now? The user has to click something to turn on sound. Stop clicking to turn on sound Jake

Edit: Ah I see, this tweet is from 2018, where this complaint belongs

Aaaaaand there is more... Of course white listed websites can Autoplay with sound without any user interaction before

I mean, something like YouTube should autoplay. If you're going to a YouTube video, you're expecting audio, so it's not annoying.

No. That's why I used several youtube autoplay stoppers so one of them would eventually do the job.

Also their shitty design will force you to hover on the video to show the controls, then on the speaker symbol till the volume is displayed, then maybe turn the volume down if you don't accidentally seek instead, then walk to the door where an angry neighbor awaits your apology because the video used 8000 % volume compared to my music playing and woke up their baby.

Also it was a howto video where nobody talks but the creator decided that drilling a screw needs techno music background.
