MuteTabsMatchingPattern VS qutebrowser

It's a Firefox extension for just me. [0] I've posted it here before, and one user said they'd start using it. I hope someone else finds it useful again. The problem: I wanted to be able to mute League of Legends streams in between games with a hotkey, and without changing visibility of any windows in the process of doing so. This is a much harder problem than you'd thing, even with the existence of Autohotkey, and NirCmd, and ControlSend, because Firefox is really annoying. [1] It ended up requiring me to write an entire Firefox extension as well as use an AHK that uses ControlSend.

Anyway, yeah, that FF extension. It represents the culmination of about 5 years of me trying to solve this problem with progressively more complex and incrementally better solutions until I finally arrived at a ridiculously over-engineered version that actually works as it should.

I made a Firefox extension (and accompanying autohotkey script) because muting Twitch streams of League of Legends esports broadcasts in between games with my mouse was irritating and I could find no existing way to do it with a keyboard shortcut. https://github.com/RheingoldRiver/MuteTabsMatchingPattern

I don'r know if this counts but there is also https://www.qutebrowser.org/ which uses qt webkit IIUC

I searched this issue and saw there were already open issues on github, and it is an upstream issue with QtWebEngine.

You can add [aria-haspopup] to your hints.selectors setting (from a config.py, see the configuration docs) to get the same effect.

There is a small how-to here: Switching to Qt 6 by default · Issue #7202 · qutebrowser/qutebrowser

There is a Qutebrowser user script for 1password: https://github.com/qutebrowser/qutebrowser/blob/master/misc/userscripts/qute-1pass. Disclaimer: I am the original author (it’s been refactored a lot by mkonig since I originally wrote it). My original version is here https://github.com/tomoakley/dotfiles/blob/master/qutebrowser/userscripts/1password

Glad to hear! You'd either add it to the userscripts folder in the repo, or add a link to the README about it and host it elsewhere.

It seems to work fine with Qt 6, so I guess this is just some missing feature on Qt 5. Maybe something changed on Wikipedia's side.
