YouTube killed the double tap feature on mobile browser wherein you could fast-forward or rewind by tapping the video twice on either left or the right side.

It's still available on the app but I'm sure this is done to switch users away from the mobile browser and use their app instead!

Edit: to all those asking me to use Vanced, I subscribe to YouTube Premium because I also use YouTube Music and Play Music. I use YouTube on web browser because I want to open a link to a video which I don't want on my watch history (due to YouTube recommendations).
