Description

Would have love to have an option to toggle autoplay on videos when you are hovering on them (without having to press play or press on the video). Something similar is available in infinity for reddit.

PSAuthor I really love your app. I like how it looks and how it functions. Thank you so much for the work you have done!

Research direction

The issue names no files, tests, or entry points. Start by locating the Android code for video/GIF playback and user settings, then determine how hover is represented; done means an optional setting lets supported media autoplay on hover without pressing play.
