Edit: sadly, Auto Tab Discard did not fix my issue. Firefox is also set to block audio (including video with audio to my understanding) by default, which I never changed so I don’t think that helps with this issue either.
So I installed pop on my laptop a few months ago, and recently got another one where I installed arch. On both laptops I mostly just watched series, and often times I’d just leave the laptop with the media player still open.
Now to the issue: Randomly throughout the day, it would just start playing whatever I left open, usually after a few hours of being left alone. Now that I think about it, I think it was only crunchyroll. Does anyone experience anything similar, or might even have an idea as to how to fix this or what causes this? Is it just crunchyroll being buggy?

crunchy roll
Ye if it’s a website it’ll auto-refresh sometimes and start playback as the cached buffered chunks age
That makes sense, this is probably it. I’m gonna try the add-on the other user was recommending and see if it happens again.
No idea, but it might help others to know what Desktop Environment you were using, browser, addons, etc.
Fair point.
I don’t think DE has anything to do with it since it happened on both GNOME on pop, and Xfce on arch.
On both machines I’m using Firefox and have the following addons:
Ublock origin, bitwarden, sponsorblock for youtube and bring back dislikes
