About Mozilla Firefox and its shortcuts

Firefox keeps a wider keyboard vocabulary than most browsers, including commands for caret browsing, reader mode and quick find that other browsers either hide or never had. Its tab and window management closely follows what people expect from other browsers, which makes the Firefox-only commands the ones worth learning.

Mozilla documents some commands as platform specific, and a few are genuinely missing on one system rather than being bound elsewhere. Add-ons can take a combination, and Firefox's own settings can disable features such as quick find.
