| 2024-11-23 | Sacha | | Simple to use and so incredibly useful that it makes you wonder why browsers aren't already just doing this by default. Thank you so much! Please make a chrome version!! :) |
| 2024-11-01 | bbose | | It's a weird add-on. It affects the synchronisation between the video and audio across various video streaming sites. It brings in audio delays when active. Moreover, it automatically whitelists a website when its tab is unmuted. So further reloads do not mute the previously unmuted website by default. That setting could however be changed in the "Preferences" section of the add-on. More than relying on third party add-ons.. it's better if websites default to 50% volume while playing any media when they get freshly loaded for the very first time(before cookies save the preferred volume, set manually, for the subsequent loads). |
| 2024-10-31 | Firefox user 18662579 | | Please allow users to configure the addon to let us see website favicons rather than the speaker icon on muted tabs. The speaker icons complicate multi-tab browsing. |
| 2024-10-21 | TT | | I hate sites that force you to listen to their sounds. This add-on turns that off by default. It has an optional setting to remember for which sites you enable sound so you don't have to unmute them repeatedly. Have been using it for a long time and love it. Thanks for writing it, abba23! |

| 2024-09-13 | darkNiGHTS0 | | Adds a clickable mute icon to every tab whether or not it's playing sound. Ugly clutter. |
| 2024-08-21 | yensama | | Is there a way to keep the site icon in tab, instead of having every one be muted icon? |
| 2024-08-10 | Makezu | | need some blacklist so only x sites are muted default. |
