    “Firefox now has a new anti-tracking feature, Bounce Tracking Protection”: Nice! This is why I use Firefox.

    However the integration of tabs in the sidebar takes much longer than I thought would be. Well I guess its ready when its ready. Does anybody use this feature “Picture-in-Picture: auto-open on tab switch”? I had it enabled for testing, but it was totally annoying.

      I also tested it once, and turned it back off immediately.

        Some suggestion to make it more useful:

        Its also missing some optional settings, such as if it should apply to say embedded videos from third party sites (like YouTube player in a blog post). And an option to enable that functionality for certain websites only. And if the tab should be opened up automatically only when a video is currently playing or always.

          Nope. I wouldn’t nitpick this situation or that.
          That one time I tried it, I realized that when I click away from the tab I don’t care if see the video anymore. Listening to the audio is all I want in that moment.
