PSA, How to Disable Auto-Play in Browser so you don't vomit when Trump is on
Moderators, I think this should be here and not in Computers and Internet.
If you are like me, and want to scratch your eyes and ears away every time a website starts automatically playing Trump I have a possible solution. I couldn't stand to listen to W and now 45 is far worse.
in Chrome, install the extension Disable HTML5 Autoplay

So far this works pretty well.
ON EDIT:
There are instructions for older versions and flash as well - just search for them
