| 2024-04-06 |  | | en | regarding what Mike Bilel commented: "Edit: changed my score to 4/5 because sometimes pressing spacebar will scroll down. Maybe use js keydown to intercept spacebar and press 'k' virtually?". To reproduce that simply click on video's title, press tab and then try to use spacebar |
