> At last! Mozilla fixing longstanding bugs! (I jest) you joke but they did just close out the initial implementation of a something like 27 year old bug. about:keyboard was recently added to nightly to allow you to change or clear the built in keyboard shortcuts of a bunch of menu items like save, back, refresh, or open dev tools or whatever.

Holy shit does this mean I can disable Ctrl-Shift-C and get my muscle memory for terminal copy back?

  There's an extension for that. Quite handy for in-browser terminals like one in AWS etc. https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/ctrl-shift-c-should-copy/ https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/ctrl-shift-c-...

    I installed this extension 5 minutes ago and it's already such an improvement. Never occured to me that there can be extensions to override shortcut defaults. Thanks!

Is CRTL-Q included? They always insisted that applications can't change that shortcut on Linux.
- mikkupikku 11mo ago
  Ctrl-Q (quit application) right next to Ctrl-W (close tab) has been bad UX since forever.

    I bind ctrl-q to lock screen in gnome, which is less bad than losing the whole browser. I suppose you could also bind it to a noop.

      You can tell firefox to ask before quitting ...
      - sevg 11mo ago
        You can also tell Firefox to ignore it completely: browser.quitShortcut.disabled As well as to warn: browser.warnOnQuit browser.warnOnQuitShortcut Well, apparently I once was aware of these because I have it set in my custom user.js. But I guess ctrl-q will always be lock screen for me, old habits die hard.

        > browser.quitShortcut.disabled The setting is there, it's editable, but Firefox seems to completely ignore it on Linux. At least up to 145.0.1.

        I use 144.0.2 on Linux and it works entirely fine here.

was that a bug though? cuz it sounds like it was just a new feature that was added
