Just to be clear that is an option offered by your web browser not YouTube, which full screens just the video, which is why you don't see anything other than the video.

There exists a further dependency on the "Schrödinger's screen" shortcuts, which do and do not do what you want.
The shortcut 'u' does not save overlays, such as subtitles when, for example, you're learning another language, or when you want to have information plus text/subtitles for an image/screen capture as context, then the use of the system shortcut (win+prtscr) is necessary: 1. for the overlaid subtitles to be included, 2. a playback bar pops up and covers the text when there is some text at the bottom of the screen or other details you want to capture. There is a contradiction here between what you want to capture as seen at the given moment, and the result of what you can actually capture after using the specific keyboard shortcut. None of the shortcuts in different situations (subtitles/playback bar) work like: WYSIWYG.
I found a temporary solution in FreeTube, in such situations in the code inspection: 1. ctrl+shift+i, 2. ctrl+shift+c (click under the total video time to capture the frame with the entire playback bar), 3. On the highlighted code fragment: div class=”vjs-control-bar”.., lmb(left mouse button)/’hide element’.
Clarification regarding menu keys: I confused left/right keys, I have a tablet with a stylus and the key assignment has been changed. It should be ctrl+shift+rmb (right mouse button) with the option of full-screen without overlays.
In my case, the shortcut works on YT in Firefox. It is only visible after playback has started, and after a slightly faster x2 click (RMB). Without playback starting, the default YT menu is visible, and RMBx2 shows a different menu. In principle, the shortcut is available on any HTML5 player, but the "default" menu is limited except for some options and usually hidden behind transparent frames, sometimes with 5 frames, so as not to activate this menu. In the past, in the flash player, there was always an option to download the video when there was no video splitting into separate files/audio/video portions. HLS (HTML Live Stream). On some players, you can still download the video in this way. Frames can also be removed (besides developer tools) using a plugin, e.g., ublock and assigning a shortcut for the option to remove page elements, (available in Firefox/Chrome/Opera and others), as a temporary rule on the loaded page.
BTW: Is the set time skip "multiplied" by the playback speed? Because the skip time does not match when the speed is different from x1. Sometimes it jumps over a minute at x2+ with 15s set.

The screenshot button and the u
keyboard shortcut, ask the video player for the currently visible frame of the video stream and save that. The subtitles are overlays, they aren't burned into the video stream, which is why they are understandably not in the image that you saved. It takes a screenshot of the video not the player, as that wasn't clear to you, maybe we need to clarify that in a tooltip next to the setting. If you want part of the player saved in the image, such as the subtitle overlays, then yes you need to take an actual screenshot with the tools offered by your operating system.
The player UI hides itself when you are idle, by pressing keys on your keyboard you are telling FreeTube that you are interacting with it again, which is why it display the player buttons and progress bar again.
As it sounds like you are using Windows, instead of using Win+PrntScrn, you should be using the Snip & Sketch
(which you can trigger with Win+Shift+S) or Snipping Tool
system utilities.
Yes the skip time is multiplied by the playback speed, the same as what YouTube does.

Yes, it's possible to do it this way, but when you want to take screenshots "on the fly," without pausing every time and selecting the appropriate mode/keyboard shortcut for taking a screenshot, it's a hindrance. FreeTube limits the freedom to take screenshots as they appear, and on Windows, pressing (win+) in the case of YouTube, such a situation does not occur. The playback bar is not activated in full-screen mode when the shortcut does not apply to it, and even when it does, it only appears after moving the cursor. In FreeTube, the freedom to take screenshots on the fly is limited when you want more than one with direct saving to a folder without confirming anything.
