We all are very familiar with the mini player bar on the mobile version of the YouTube app. However, YouTube has now introduced that feature for its web version too as "Miniplayer". It lets you watch your videos in a smaller window at the bottom right corner while you explore many other sections of the site at the same time.
As we already know Facebook's video player can also let you continue watching while you are using Facebook. However, we can drag and drop Facebook's video player anywhere we want. You have got this, right? Yes, we cannot drag and drop the video player on YouTube. Now, I don't know why YouTube doesn’t have it but YouTube should have this feature.
Here is a quick demonstration video from Google that shows you how to use the mini-player on YouTube.

Amazing, right? Well, you can easily go to the next videos or previous videos and can play/pause, seek any action of that video. You can close that window by clicking on the "x" sign or pressing the Escape keys on your keyboards.
However, it still lacks some of the features like moving the window, resizing the window, adjusting the quality of the video. But let's see if YouTube does that in its new update.
