@BryanGreyson Yes, browsers shouldn't have implemented many of their features.
I see the usual non-browser game features of "stop music when minimized" and "stop scrolling when the cursor leaves the window" could be implemented now, but I never experience browser games stopping music when inactive and I want background music from certain tabs.
They could've kept the interactivity of the 1990s and just improve accessibility without scripting.

@lukyan Another thing I really hate with the visibility thing is if they change the tab name to "don't forget about us!" or some bullshit, because that means I suddenly can't see anymore what of the open tabs from that site that specific tab was. Luckily that's something that seems to have become more rare. (and is also blocked by blocking pagevisibility). I've heard Twitch uses it to make sure people watch ads, but I have to say, I assume thanks to uBlock, I haven't seen ads on Twitch in quite some time, so, even better, I guess. 😅
