Focus input box on website load

[olfMombach]

Hello,
when loading the site the central input box is not focused. For people that heavily use the keyboard and shortcuts, manually selecting the box using the mouse is an additional step. Therefore I would suggest using the HTMLElement.focus() method in Javascript or similar to make the browser focus the element after loading the website, requiring no additional mouse input.

The approach I was thinking of would be something like

document.addEventListener("DOMContentLoaded", function() {
            let textBox = document.getElementById("v");  // in some way get the text box
            textBox.focus();
});

@olfMombach,
This change has been deployed to https://dencode.com/ .

I remembered that I had removed this feature in the past because the software keyboard is displayed on mobile devices.
When I try it on my iPhone, there seems to be no problem at the moment, but I might add a condition regarding whether it is a mobile device or not.

Please let me know if you have any good solution.
