Has space bar stopped working for anyone else with Youtube? I keep spamming it and it sometimes doesn't work.

Us j, k, l (-10s, play/pause, +10s). Does not require player focus.

Because I use Vim Keybindings in LibreWolf through Tridactyl, I actually can't use j, k and l for -10s, play/pause and +10s lol

Ah, the irony XD
How are video controls with it then?

[-] netchami@sh.itjust.works 2 points 2 years ago

I use spacebar for play/pause and the arrow keys for +5 and -5 seconds. It's not perfect, but I haven't found a better solution yet.

Haha, so it circled back into being normal

I use Piped or Invidious most of the time, the keybindings work there. They seem to be broken on the official YouTube website though.

I had a feeling this was Youtube fuckery.
