Shut Up Already!
Description from store

This extensions mutes all tabs by default allowing you to make tab audible on-demand. I've created it because I got furious at various news sites that autoplay videos in background, often somewhere along the text or in the sidebar.

**This extension has zero analytics, tracking or any other data gathering and it will stay this way forever.**

The extension may be a bit less stable until I figure out all the bugs and quirks on Manifest v3. Apologies for that!

WHAT'S NEW

- 2.3.1:
- Fix the logic deciding when to mute tabs, including when to evaluate whitelists/blacklists and what "keep muted state" means. This should fix the issue where tabs would not be muted or unmuted correctly compared to the previous version of the extension.
---
2.3.0:
- Fix context menu actions
- There is a major change in the behaviour of the "Keep muted state of the opening tab" flag. Previously due to a mistake two separate features have been merged together - keeping muted state and muting all tabs by default. This has now been fixed and you can set the two settings separately. Existing users will have them both enabled if they had the feature enabled before.
2.2.0: Rewrite service worker to prevent issues with MV3 being garbage standard that keeps glitching and killing things in the background
2.1.0: Corporate ad-driven garbage bullshit requirement update (converted the extension from manifest v2 to v3)
2.0.1: Update privacy practices
2.0: Removed popup, added options page and context menu instead. Clicking on mute icon will now toggle mute status.
1.2: Added popup with multiple options and settings
1.0: Initial release

I felt so sad that the functions of mute all tabs and unmute all tabs no longer be working, have to mute them manually, please fix it soonest possible

It's a nice extension but it will be removed soon. The original developer no longer maintains it, so i have upgraded it based on this extension: https://chromewebstore.google.com/detail/mute-tab/djnlklfindboblpikpeaedoamfhgklfd

I can't know for certain, but I believe this app infected my Chrome with a Bing redirect virus. You've been warned.

Great extension. Mutes the whole domain instead of muting the current tab like on Edge. Works perfectly.

Exceptional. But I would also like to see also a list of the tabs that have sound (muted or unmuted).

Finally an extension that remembers the mute/unmute state of each tab properly making it work correctly in Vivaldi! For some reason, every other mute extension re-mutes tabs when volume goes below a certain threshold or one clicks away from active unmuted tab. I bet this has to do with Vivaldi's handling of its mute system which is only really available for a tab until it detects audio in it (meaning you can't rightclick a tab and mute it until audio is detected). EDIT: The "Keep muted state of the opening tab" feature doesn't seem to work as intended in Vivaldi, but it's a feature I can go without as long as the rest works - which it does. EDIT2: Whoops. The feature only work on domains outside the scope of the white- and blacklist. Would be nice if it worked regardless of this.

Thank you thank you THANK YOU Michael Matyas!! Using a wildcard "*" to mute ALL new tabs by default was exactly what I was looking for, and had such a hard time finding an extension for.
