Why the fuck does my browser need to send it the information that its muted or minimized?
Because money
there are many ways of detecting minimized/inactive or not. You can do
setIntervalthrottle detection when browsers slow down JS in inactive tabs for performance reasons.I need everyone to look at what you can do with HTML5 "game engines". You want mouse poisiton? You want to know if the mouse is in on the page or not? Internet speed? Audio card codec?
If a 13 years old using the free version of construct3 can do it, capitalism can do it.
This is why browser games don’t tend to work in Librewolf. Also why I use Librewolf.
Firefox has plugins to spoof specific tabs as always active.
You should link them so more people can find them easily.

You must be using one of those browsers from an ad company.
There aren't really any others though, every browser these days is made by a company with corporate interests in mind, either their own, or someone paying them.
While it may be true that capitalism messes with all of them to some extent, I think there's still a pretty wide chasm between a Firefox fork like LibreWolf or WaterFox versus just using a default install of Chrome or Edge.
Forks are great, they can fix and change small stuff, but for bigger things like Manifest or engine level changes it's an uphill battle because those change the developer ecosystem and momentum, and changing those to your liking is possible, but most developers aren't going to take advantage of them.
It's been a standard feature for a very long time I'm kind of surprised they've only just started making use of it but this kind of thing.
A lot of sites that play sounds will stop when you tap out of them otherwise they're just plain sounds in the background and that's kind of annoying.
And it's not a bad feature to have for the functionality of some sites. It's just that as with any feature/rule/etc it can be abused. So a toggle like (according to a comment above) some plugins add is an unfortunate necessity.
I think you can turn it off in settings
Because Browsers are corporate-built garbage which are designed with corporate interests in mind, same reason they choose to send good fingerprinting canvas data instead of sending randomized garbage every new session.
