The Issue

Suggestion from a reddit user:

More keyboard shortcuts should be included in the app. Examples include being able to scroll via arrow/page up/down buttons, home button to go to Discover page, Ctrl + X shortcuts to go to subscriptions, downloads, publishes, Publish, wallet, etc.

The arrow keys up and down to navigate through options or menus
TAB key to switch main menus like wallet, libray, help etc... and also to select individual videos enter key to play the highlighted video by the tab key, space bar to pause and play, in-video control, left arrow key to forward 10 seconds and vice versa

As discussed in #2003
We should try to extract any additional shortcuts away from specific to components if possible and have a standard way to do this

Here are my suggestions:

Basic playback may have the easiest keystrokes assigned - just one key when possible - to make them easy to press and comfortable to use.

K or spacebar -> Play/Pause
Left Arrow -> Rewind 10 seconds back
Right Arrow -> Skip 10 seconds forward
Up Arrow -> Volume up
Down Arrow -> Volume down
Home -> Go at the beginning of video
End -> Reach to end of video
/ -> Focus on search box at the top
* Would a "find on page" feature be introduced in the future? If yes, then F3 and Ctrl+F may be assigned to that (for the app, browsers should take care of this automatically). If not, those can also be set to reach to search box as they are common search keyboard shortcuts.
F -> Fullscreen / Unfullscreen
C or S -> Closed captioning / Subtitles (when it is implemented)
P -> Popup video mode / Normal (unpopup) video mode

Video related extra features may have a Shift+ prefix.

Shift+T -> Tip
Shift+S -> Share
Shift+O -> Open file
Shift+Delete -> Remove from library
Shift+G -> Flag (G as in the last letter in "Flag")
Shift+F -> Follow
Shift+U -> Unfollow
Shift+B -> Block
Shift+E -> Expand video description
Shift+C -> Focus to post comment input textbox
Shift+R -> Focus in the related section so that an item can be chosen to play. Tab, Shift+Tab and Enter can be used to choose and play from the related videos.

Sidebar items may have the same prefix Shift+ to keep things easy to be accessed.

Shift+H -> Home
Shift+L -> Library
Shift+P -> Publishes
Shift+C -> Customize
Shift+I -> Focus on first tag on sidebar. Items may be navigated with Tab, Shift+Tab and enter.

All the menu options may have a Ctrl+Shift+ prefix.

Ctrl+Shift+P -> Settings
Ctrl+Shift+H or F1 -> Help
Ctrl+Shift+L -> Switch to Light mode or Dark mode
Ctrl+Shift+O -> Overview
Ctrl+Shift+R -> Rewards
Ctrl+Shift+W -> Wallet
Ctrl+Shift+U -> Publish (U as in Upload)

* As there are many focus keyboard shortcuts, we would need to have a :focus css style to indicate that focus has been placed. Currently items do not change appearance when they get focused. This would be great for visual feedback and navigation.

These are just my suggestions. Feel free to discuss and recommend better ones.

Another suggestion from the community:
ALT+ and ALT+ to go back and forwards in the history

Another suggestion from the community: ALT+<L-ARROW> and ALT+<R-ARROW> to go back and forwards in the history

On YouTube you can press Shift + ? to show a map of the keyboard shortcuts available:

I think these are a good starting point. I miss the Shift + ./> to increase playback rate in particular!
