Will I finally nbe able to rebind ^w? Sigh
Firefox doing something useful for once? I thought I’d never see the day…
As late as today I saw someone had thrown up a “!remindme 6 years” on a Nextcloud ticket as a sarcastic comment on the speed of critical fixes.
It has now been 9 years and the Nextcloud android app still hasn’t implemented working 2-way sync.
Hmm, I wonder why that thought suddenly came up.
Let’s see what the hive mind thinks… Good news, or another opportunity to complain?
But that’s not implementing more
electrolytesAI that the users crave?!“I doubt people left Firefox because it didn’t have key binds,” says one commenter. I almost did. It was only marginally less work to find a good way to stop ^W from accidentally closing all my firefox tabs than it would’ve been to switch to a different browser.
I went to opera in like idk 2008? Then eventually opera turned into Chromium and removed all of that. Womp.
Back in the XUL days (pre Firefox 57) it was possible for an extension to muck with keyboard bindings. So only 90 versions later :)
I’m looking forward to being able to disable the ^q quit shortcut, at the very least.
Maybe these shortcuts will come to the Android app too! !remindme 20 years
Maybe regular users of Firefox didn’t leave because of it, but I’m sure a number of people who were trying out Firefox decided not to switch because of it
PSA: Many extensions already support keyboard shortcuts, and Firefox allows you to change them. This might include your favorite extension.
What’s the key command for changing Mozilla management?
You don’t even need to press a key. Just wait a couple of months, and there’ll be a whole new roster again :P
