How can I turn off the annoying ctrl-Q shortcut?
Dear Developers,
I'm using Firefox v60.0.1 on Debian Linux. I was wondering why on Earth is the Ctrl-Q shortcut is defined at all to immediately close all tabs and quit the browser? I think it is an extremely bad idea to have this shortcut, since it is very easy to accidentally hit it by mistyping Ctrl-W, which is in turn oftentimes used.
I suggest to remove Ctrl-Q from future versions, or at least give the user the option to turn it off. In the current version I have found no way to do it, if there is, please let me know.
Many thanks in advance!

Unfortunately you can not change keys and that is what is mapped. But : https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/shortkeys/ I hope the above is workable for you.
Please let us know if this solved your issue or if need further assistance.
The Menus and Keyboard/Mouse shortcuts on Linux is due to the Gnome HIG just as it is due to Apple HIG for Mac.
Linux and Mac have a similar shortcut for to Quit/Exit while Windows it is Ctrl + Shift + Q

The shortcuts have not changed much if any in so long.
There were add-ons that could change hot-key settings, but whether the new Firefox can use them . . . . . .
There is an extension to disable this key, but it doesn't work on Linux.

This add on you recommend does not solve the problem.

This does not solve the problem.

And has ever been an annoyance. This is a strange answer as it basically states that just because a problem exists for quite some time it would no longer be a problem.
This problem exists for a long time now. But as keyboards have changed this problem increased in importance. It needs to be fixed, it is extremely annoying.

Yes of course. Otherwise I'm not even able to write a reply here. A conceptional design error of the support forum software.
