When watching video in fullscreen in landscape and plugging in my charger, the video changes to portrait. When unplugging my charger it goes back to landscape again.
Why is this happening?
I'm using a Zenfone 9 (Android 14) and have tested with Firefox (watch YouTube fullscreen) and DRTV app watching in fullscreen with same results. I remember having encountered the same issue on my last phone as well, but haven't tested yet (Sony XZ2C, Android 10).
(At first I thought it was an intermitten issue with Youtube or Firefox, but then I figured out it was related to when the phone was charging and reproduceable with other apps.)

Add a line of JavaScript to an URL in the browser

Apparently, I must paste a line of script in the URL of the website, but I cannot seem to get it right whatsoever (I pasted it both before and after the URL).
I'd like to have a step-by-step tutorial of how to proceed, with some visuals, if this is still the only alternative available.

How to exit full-screen views with a single gesture
In order to exit apps' full-screen modes (i.e. video playback), you need to execute any gesture once and only then are you able to actually execute the desired gesture.

In order to exit apps' full-screen modes (i.e. video playback), you need to execute any gesture once and only then are you able to actually execute the desired gesture.
This is terrible for consistency and consistency is key when it comes to gestures, so this needs to stop.
I want a single back gesture in an app to cause the app to receive a back button event, no matter what state said app is in (full-screen or otherwise). Same for home or app switcher events. The notification bar can remain in the double-pull mode though, I think I'd prefer that actually.
I'm open for any sort of hack to make this happen as long as it's open source and applicable to AOSP Android and/or LineageOS. It wouldn't be the first time I had to patch android_frameworks_base to my will but I'd rather do this in a less invasive manner (i.e. a Magisk module).
(Specs: Fairphone 4, LineageOS 20 (Android 13), µG)
