Post memes here.
A meme is an idea, behavior, or style that spreads by means of imitation from person to person within a culture and often carries symbolic meaning representing a particular phenomenon or theme.
An Internet meme or meme, is a cultural item that is spread via the Internet, often through social media platforms. The name is by the concept of memes proposed by Richard Dawkins in 1972. Internet memes can take various forms, such as images, videos, GIFs, and various other viral sensations.

If you have a desktop and not a laptop, it's always a great idea to get a separate sound controller. Either a dac/amp for nice headphones, volume controls on a wireless headset, or even buy a sound mixer like the rodecaster duo so you can assign independent applications to each physical slider on the mixer. I do that last one and it's such a quality of life improvement if you use your PC a lot.
All of these options can't be seen from Spotify.
I don't think a site can view your system volume. They can however see if a tab is specifically muted https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Mozilla/Add-ons/WebExtensions/API/tabs/MutedInfo
I think the Spotify application may be able to, I assume this is what OP was talking about.
They might also be talking about muting volume in spotify app but im not really sure who does that in the first place
afaik Spotify(or any site) Cannot see if a tab is muted. The method you're referring to is part of the tabs API, which can only be used by extensions that have been given permission to the tabs api
I was not expecting that mixer to be nearly $1,000 lol
Yeah that one is pricey, but you can certainly get cheap ones for a fraction of the price. Most people don't need the one I have, and smaller ones can serve the same purpose.
I have a Zoom L12 for mixing/recording my synthesizers, PC system sound and additional PC audio interface. I got it used for $500.
You can get super cheap mixers as well, but the quality will probably be hit-or-miss. (Proper grounding and interference being the biggest issues.) I got lucky with a $40 4 channel mixer that I use when running too many synths and just need to route sound somehow.
Yeah, but separate physical controls are beneficial when you have full-screen apps, are busy, don't want to lose your place, or if you need to do it more frequently and quickly than the sound mixer allows.
Linux largely has this too, but in both OS's it's less convenient than reaching over and quickly pressing a button or sliding a slider in many scenarios.
Of course if you just need to edit these infrequently then that's a perfectly good solution and there's no reason to spend any money at all.
