| // @description Replace the user-unfriendly Twitter video player with the browser's native video player. This allows you to: seek backward/forward with the left/right keyboard keys, change the volume with the up/down keyboard keys, switch to full screen with double-click of f key, access the video's contextual menu, change the playback speed with the <kbd>+</kbd>, <kbd>-</kbd> and <kbd>0</kbd> keys or via the contextual menu, share the playback speed between videos. | |
