BeepTwitch: "Hey, come back! This commercial break can't play while you're away."
ShittDickkWhy the fuck does my browser need to send it the information that its muted or minimized?
It’s been a standard feature for a very long time I’m kind of surprised they’ve only just started making use of it but this kind of thing.
A lot of sites that play sounds will stop when you tap out of them otherwise they’re just plain sounds in the background and that’s kind of annoying.
And it’s not a bad feature to have for the functionality of some sites. It’s just that as with any feature/rule/etc it can be abused. So a toggle like (according to a comment above) some plugins exist to add is an unfortunate necessity.
