It works most of the times, but it has some bugs which make every-day use annoying.

Doesn't work. Temporary solution (copy and paste for each youtube visit)
```
function toggleYoutubeVideo(value = null)
const videoElements = document.querySelectorAll("video"); // contains false positives too

if (!videoElements?.length) throw new Error("No video elements found");

const mainVideoElement = Array.from(videoElements).find((videoElement) =
videoElement.src.includes("blob:https")
);

if (!mainVideoElement) throw new Error("Main video not found");

switch (value)
case "play":
mainVideoElement.play();
break;
case "pause":
mainVideoElement.pause();
break;

default:
mainVideoElement.getAttribute("paused")
? mainVideoElement.play()
: mainVideoElement.pause();
break;



window.addEventListener("focus", function ()
// document.title = "focused";
toggleYoutubeVideo("play");
);

window.addEventListener("blur", function ()
// document.title = "not focused";
toggleYoutubeVideo("pause");
);
```
