In case you're mad at yourself for closing your precious window with all the right tabs opened, note that Firefox allows to reopen recently closed windows (jlai.lu)

I generally have a "home" Firefox window with my most used tabs pinned. Sometimes I close it before another window, so I was frustrated to "lose" it and having to redo my pins. But recently I discovered this feature. Joy!

Don't forget Ctrl + Shift + N

Or Ctrl+Shift+P for Firefox

I save that one for secret fun time

I'm not a fan of that shortcut though:

  • Ctrl+T - open new tab; Ctrl+shift+T - reopen closed tab
  • Ctrl+N - open new window; Ctrl+shift+N - reopen closed window
  • Ctrl+P - print (or apparently preview on Lemmy); Ctrl+shift+P - private window?

It breaks the nice pattern.

Yeah it does break the pattern but there isn't much of an option that keeps everything super clean like tjat, unless it's something like ctrl alt N for a private window.

[–] sugar_in_your_tea@sh.itjust.works 2 points 1 year ago

Yeah, I think that would be a better option, and then an eventual private tab would be intuitive too.
