How to swipe to fast forward video on iPhone - iOS 17

I can no longer press and hold to fast-forward a video on iOS 17, especially when watching videos on YouTube or other video websites through Safari or Chrome. I haven't tried other browsers, but I looked it up and saw that someone on an Apple discussion years ago complained about this. They simply removed a feature that millions of people were enjoying. Therefore, I suggest bringing the option back and adding a toggle in the settings so that people can choose to turn it off or on.

As i am watching a lot of movies during the slow days in work, or in some bus rides, i use this feature a lot. iOS 16 was so much better, because iOS 17 brought a lot of unnecessary features and took away useful ones.
