Tab Muter

Life saver. I used to like the muting tabs feature in Chrome until they removed it. This extension does the same thing; despite the button being in a slightly different place but it works flawlessly. It mutes/unmutes the tab you are currently viewing and ONLY that tab (it won't mute the whole of Chrome - just the tab you're viewing at the time of pressing the mute/unmute button).

Suggestion : Please change icon color as it is very difficult to see the icon and click to unmute tab if we have chrome Dark mode enabled. Both are black which is making it difficult for us.

Very Nice. Coming from Firefox I was missing this feature and I learned that Chrome had this at one time. Glad you made this, thank you.

this is not a restoration of the tab mute functionality. the idea of tab mute is to click on the audio icon of the tab when you are not in it to mute it from another page. if you have to open the tab to mute it, you could just mute the audio source in the page itself.

No idea why Google keeps insisting on removing the ability to mute individual tabs. First they removed how clicking the icon would mute it, but now you can't even right click and mute a tab. You used to be able to fix this by going into your Chrome flags, but now even that option is removed. My guess is they want to make it harder and harder for users to be able to mute ads.

This is the next best alternative. The only annoying thing is you have to actually go into the tab you want to mute and then click the extension. But that's not the devs' fault, it's Google's.
