      You guys have sound? I can’t unmute it in Lemmy, and directly on Imgur the unmute is grayed out.

      Edit: Hmm, works on Firefox, again

      Not the first time some media worked only in Firefox, but not Chrome. Embedded FLAC wouldn’t play (despite it being supported), WebSDR audio wouldn’t start, from the other times I recall.
      Again being reminded to switch.

            Have you considered using a Lemmy app? I don’t have these issues you’re having in Voyager. You’re browsing Lemmy the hard way for no good reason.

            Do you have more information on this? I have an android gadget with google apps installed but I try to mainly use Firefox…

            I listen to bbc with this gadget when I take a shower in the morning before work…

            Recently, in firefox the sound started shutting off after a couple minutes, and I had to start using chrome…. I assumed it was something nefarious where they are trying to collect more user data…

            The gadget thinks I live in a random place on the planet and I don’t use it for anything other than a mobile game I play and movies and listening to the radio… anyways, I’d much prefer to use Firefox…

              I think this could rather be related to power saving if the screen is locked.

              I prefer to use a dedicated internet radio app. VLC also works if you obtain the direct stream (check online or play around with element inspector).

        Very few things refuse to work on Firefox mobile. The one exception I’ve run across is trying to log into Google, which insists that I should use a ‘compatible’ browser. Like Chrome.

        If I switch what user agent Firefox is reporting so that it LOOKS like I’m using Chrome, it works perfectly, surprise, surprise. I hate Google.
