Comment on Dear YouTube; About that Chapter Skipping Feature

DudeDudenson@lemmings.world ⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago

I’m more pissed off about accidentally pressing a number in my numpad on desktop and it jumping to that % of the video. Who the hell ever uses such a feature it doesn’t accomplish anything but making me accidentally lose where I was in that 4h long podcast I was listening to

The only number skip I use is 0 to rewind. Kinda helpful NGL.

  Why do you rewind to the start of the video so often?

    Sometimes I’m watching something to analyze or I just really liked a song.
    
    I also use j/l, left/right, and ./, for those three different types of scrubbing

Not so long ago, I read a blog post about how some guy hates YT ads because he heavily uses the number skipping feature, and he gets the ads every time he jumps. Or something like that.

I have actually used that feature, two whole times. It was great.
