I occasionally use that feature. But absolutely every single time is by mistake and it has negative effects on my mood. Still love Firefox though.

I managed to somehow disable the button that appears on the video without totally disabling the feature. I find it a lot more ergonomic to hit ctrl+shift+] to toggle it.

I pretty much only use it for videos yt-dlp + mpv can't open though.

Not too hard really. This seems to do it:

media.videocontrols.picture-in-picture.enabled -> true

media.videocontrols.picture-in-picture.video-toggle.enabled -> false

media.videocontrols.picture-in-picture.keyboard-controls.enabled -> true
