While editing in an input field, I’m so used to going for Ctrl+W instead of Ctrl+Backspace because it’s more ergonomic. But almost all modern browsers use Ctrl + W to close tabs. Since when was this a convention? I’d love to go back in time and git revert this change. Incredibly frustrating.
TL;DR: old man yelling at clouds.
29 years here, get my first computer in 2011 after using it sometimes in my sister’s house. Never used ctrl+backspace in my life and did not know it existed. Edit maybe you can try something like that? https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/shortkeys/
There’s also Ctrl+delete which deletes the word after the cursor.
