I prefer using the keyboard as much as I can, and I use Cmd+W to close windows (yes, sometimes one may mistakenly hit Cmd+Q and close the entire application, but muscle memory can help).
- jasomill 6y agoIMO, applications that don't prompt for confirmation on potentially destructive Quit are broken. By this definition, all Mac Web browsers are broken, but you can fix the accidental Command-Q problem on an app-by-app basis by remapping Quit to something harder to accidentally type like Command-Shift-Q using the Keyboard pane in System Preferences. Personally, for applications like my primary browser where intentionally quitting is overwhelmingly the exception rather than the rule, I remap Quit to Control-Command-Option-Shift-Q and rely on the fact that pressing Q while any application is selected in the Command-Tab switcher triggers its Quit command.
- derefr 6y ago> By this definition, all Mac Web browsers are broken Chrome has a “Confirm before Quitting” toggle-option hiding in its File menu, right above Quit. Kind of wish Safari had the same.
- ShamelessC 6y agoPretty sure this is Firefox's default behavior with multiple tabs.
- srtjstjsj 6y agoChrome also asks for confirmatiom before destructively closing any tab, even if you don't quit.
