You can’t just say that and not give a link! I use quite a few of the hotkeys, but those ones in particular cause me grief. If you have an extension that lets you pick and chose, I beg you to save us from that pain.
Comment on Why did they move the comments to the right

I recently discovered there are extensions to disable YouTube hotkeys. I personally disabled numbers 0-9, so annoying and useless.

I don’t give link because:
- I’m on mobile and idk it’s name.
- I found it with a quick Google search and chose the first option. Idk if it’s even open source. It might be mining crypto for all I know.
- I’ll edit my original comment with link when I get to my pc.

Not useless! I personally love quickly skipping the first chunk of a video with them.

wait until you find out about the arrow keys, or even better the media keys, which do 10 seconds at a time.

why are you pressing numbers while watching a video in the first place?
calcopiritus@lemmy.world 2 months ago
Got 2 monitors. Sometimes I think I have another program focused, but turns out YouTube was focused. The other program also has 0-9 as keybinds (or just writing a number). Now the video jumped to a random timestamp.

Had this happen to me many times 🥲

I guess that’s fair. I don’t really do anything while watching besides eating.
