However it turns out you can quickly disable video auto-play, both on the apps and on your desktop (because disabling one doesn't affect the other, FYI).
Don't fret, you can still choose to play videos, like the clip of those red pandas frolicking in the snow, as sometimes as you select (14 in my case, however who's counting?).
