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

    EDIT: the extension I use is Disable YouTube Seek by Number

    I didn’t even check if it is open source. So if it’s secretly a Bitcoin miner don’t blame me.

      why are you pressing numbers while watching a video in the first place?

        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.

      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.

        I don’t give link because:

        1. I’m on mobile and idk it’s name.
        2. 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.
        3. I’ll edit my original comment with link when I get to my pc.

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