We really need to get a reasonable response to auto playing video and sound. I get it's difficult, but that's why it's a browser problem.

As far as I'm concerned, audio autput should only ever be allowed after an explicit permission prompt. No weird user-initiated click rules that websites can attempt to exploit just straight zero sound until I click allow.

Still waiting to see if there is any noticeable improvement in memory overhead for sessions left open for a week or more.

I will be an enthusiast when Picture-in-Picture can be disabled completely.

Does turning off the "Use Picture-in-Picture" setting not work?

Many sites force picture in picture even when "disabled"

Picture-in-Picture is probably my favorite feature of Firefox!
