If facebook switches to HTML5 I'll not be happy. Because, there's no easy way to disable video autoplay. I've asked multiple times on HN but I've still not gotten a way to do that - except Youtube (there's an extension for that.)
- Zirro 12y agovar videoElements = document.getElementsByTagName("video"); for (var videoElement of videoElements) { videoElement.removeAttribute("autoplay"); } ...in a Userscript ought to do it. HTML5 gives more power to those who can write code than we had with Flash. That said, this does not qualify as easy for most users. If there is enough demand for a "never autoplay" feature among users, browers ought to implement an option in the user interface. It is not a good reason for keeping Flash around.
