Youtube shortcuts on firefox
Tonight I noticed something really weird when I tried to reply to a comment on Youtube. Initially, I tried to reply from the bell button in the notifications and soon I realized that the Spacebar was not working. I thought it might be stuck, but it was not, since it was working fine in both the address bar and the search bar. Asynchronous keys function was disabled. Then, I went to the video and tried to reply from there. Guess what! The video was being resized using the shortcuts depending on what I was typing! For example "t" changes between normal and theater mode and "i" makes it picture-in-picture. What is going on? I am sure no key is locked, i even restarted my pc and the same thing kept happening. Then, I turned it off and on and the problem was persisting. Everything works fine on other applications, just YT seems broken for some reason. I tried to type on YouTube on two other browsers and everything worked fine. I don't think it has anything to do with the windows update, since it only happens on firefox, which I don't intend to change. Is there any setting to lock/toggle the Youtube shortcuts on and off? Sorry for the length of my description and thanks a lot in advance!

Thank you very much for the reply, at least I am relieved that it's not a firefox problem! So, if you don't mind me asking and if you are aware of course, is this a new YT issue or happened recently?
YouTube has fixed this issue and you should no longer experience it. You may have to reload and bypass the cache.

Thanks for the reply! I don't have a pc near me right now, will check again later. Reload and bypass the cache, aka Ctrl-F5?
