media.autoplay.allow-muted = false
and most users probably like their not-gifs to stay animated. webm playback is also more energy-efficient than gif playback, especially when hardware-acelerated.
- zrobotics 8y agoOn mobile, I'd much rather save my data and have to click before a "GIF" starts playing than waste data. At least on Verizon, data is expensive AF.
- nhebb 8y ago> media.autoplay.allow-muted = false Which doesn't seem to work on many sites I visit. ESPN's NBA scoreboard, for example, will now automatically play videos in the sidebar. Firefox changed media.autoplay.default from a bool to an integer several versions ago, and ever since, I can't figure out how to get videos not to autoplay. I wish there were a simple, "Don't play videos until I click on them" setting so I didn't have to guess at what config settings to toggle.
