Is there a way to turn the reddit embedded video links autoplay off? And why does it default to being turned on?
Sorry for my ignorance and to ask for change. I just hate being blindsided by self playing video.
This is the post in particular that keeps auto playing every time I open the page

Re: reddit video embedding
Ya I hate hearing that each time that thread loads. I figure Id just let it go until we were off the page.

Re: reddit video embedding
I just tried blocking autoplay for OO. We'll see if it works. Thanks for the link.
Edit: Nope. I'll trying going to reddit and blocking them...
