I swear this used to be a setting and it vanished or i'm blind. say you open a youtube video in a new tab while staying on your current browsing tab, it used to auto-pause in the background until you navigate to the new tab. I remember being so happy when i found the setting, and it stopped working recently so i went looking for it. it doesn't exist. send help.
