Why does double clicking a video make it fullscreen?
(lemmy.world)
It’s been standard behavior in many video players since before browsers supported video at all.
Double clicking the titlebar makes a window big as well. Has always been like that. It's just a convenient shortcut.
Got an alternative?
Because otherwise you're just rapidly starting then stopping the video. What else would you have it do?
It was probably done to accommodate both mouse and keyboard users and touchscreen users.
Never had an issue with it though.
