The new version provides speed changes in steps of 0.05 instead of the previous 0.5

When pressing + or - on the numpad, the playback speed changes by 0.05 instead of 0.5. This makes quickly adjusting the speed incredibly tedious, as what used to take just a couple of keystrokes can now take far more effort. Selecting the speed through the menu demands significantly more attention: I have to shift my focus to position the mouse cursor on the extension icon and then search for the right button. This completely distracts from watching the video itself. Please implement an option to adjust the playback speed increment or allow selecting any of the major speeds via a shortcut, without having to resort to mouse movements. And honestly, having a 0.05 step for speeds above 2x is a terrible idea. There’s absolutely no practical difference between speeds like 2.85 and 2.90.
