How is video autoplay is bad? We're talking muted by default. For me, having videos not autoplay is equivalent to having all pictures hidden behind a content warning. I'm using social media to engage with others' content, I would watch the video anyway. Autoplay reduces unnecessary UI interactions.

Whoever publishing the content. Even not adapted, you'd understand you need to unmute the video easily.
Braw :blob_cat_melt: 🏳🌈,
It wastes your data and makes you do extra actions to watch the video from the beginning (if that's even possible, hi Instagram Reels on the web). Usually the thumbnail and the description are enough for you to decide whether you want to watch the video or not. Autoplaying doesn't help with that. And you still have to click or tap it to unmute it.
