A GitHub standard for inviting (new) contributors *Congratulations in advance!*
help wanted
Just an old github standard we add automatically. (The team can remove it when working on it.)

Efficient to have a List for this (sub-)project. (Each task might be worth an extra thread.)

(a github standard for inviting new contributors) - Welcome! ♥
most Youtube users don't use shortcuts but many are confused by an accidental shortcut every now and then
(like once for every x usage hours, or however often they type keys accidentally).
feature request: disable rarely used, often accidental Youtube Shortcuts consisting of a single letter or single digit key ( k j l f i c o w m 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9)
(=all except the rarely accidental or most popular ones, which are intuitive like
space
←
→
,
.
)If after an accidentally triggered single-letter YouTube Shortcut follows another letter, within 1 seconds, then it likely that the shortcut wasn't intentional and the action can / could be undone or aborted. (And it can be ignored if it comes in the middle of a whole string typed....)
just another UX thoght: apps could even learn & predict: Full-screen, pause or previous/next video could be confirmed as accidental easily everytime they are undone immediately with the mouse, not even knowing what happened.
