No. You should not turn this feature off; no matter how infuriating you find it to be. You will eventually find it useful. It was put there for a reason; and your usage of the addon to find tab sounds is not a common thing people do. Additionally if your plugin begins to fail or is suddenly no longer maintained; you will have a UI element to immediately fall back on using to help you manage tab sounds.
Our loaf here is Pumpernickel / Burnt (Very dark grey).
He is such a sweet cat.
This is mostly useless to me; I already enforce all tabs into unique containers to isolate browsing and website contexts from one another; while still allowing me to make exceptions to the rule and “unbreak” things if that’s causing an issue, but still keeping things isolated from the rest of the browsing.
As for Tab Management; I use two windows and a plugin; Tab Stash Plus; which collapses tabs I stash into a bookmark.
Every so often when I reach a critical mass of tabs I personally go through them and play “Keep/Toss” with more odds on Toss. Only useful tabs get stashed and are then searchable from the plugin.
In general; since this feature now presents a possibility of an extremely UNWANTED AI integration I will be setting the config to off and leaving it off…using a relevant config policy tool or plugin to enforce this to off if needed. I hate AI features that I didn’t ask for and this one definitely doesn’t seem like it’s going to be helpful nor compatible with my current workflow.
In aggregate; 5 instances, less than 5 communities, and more than 69, nice, blocked users.
I don’t mess around. I don’t hesitate to block people who argue needlessly, make my experience less informational or less entertaining, troll, or disregard arguments made in foundational logic to push a point of view or ‘win the argument’. Similarly my instance ignores downvotes and does not display them; as with most platforms which behave similarly to reddit; they simply do not work outside of your personal, local account, local instance, user-sorting context.
If you main frustration is Youtube; I recommend trying Invidious or Piped, as these frontends for Youtube do not have such aggressive scripts; and can be hosted locally on your machine.
Hint: I strongly recommend self-hosting Invidious on your PC using Docker and Podman for ease of use and administration. You can also self-host other privacy oriented front-ends for other sites as well, such as redlib for reddit and any others you can imagine.
Seriously; don’t bother with the public instances. They don’t work well. Self-host the software on your local PC and use Tailscale if you need to help other devices access your self-hosted instance.
Similarly FreeTube would work as well and pairs nicely if you self-host Invidious locally.
