I propose that we should disable "autoplay" feature of HTMLMediaElement on mobile.
I personally have not yet seen any arguments that would really apply for making things different between mobile and desktop in your discussion, and I think we should not make functionality different between form factors or products when there is no good reason to make them different. IMHO, what's named "Firefox" should work the same everywhere unless there is a really good reason why a different variant should behave differently (and there surely are often good reasons, but I haven't noticed those in this discussion yet - nobody says I won't often use my laptop in public or my mobile devices in private).
That said, I think we should think about how we can enable more user control of such features. If I open media tabs in the background, I probably don't want them to autoplay at all. And then, there are situations on all my devices where I may want autoplay and situations where I may not. How could we give the user control over autoplay in an intuitive and easy way? Is there a good way to do that on mobile form factors as well?
