    I installed it, pressed CTRL+Q, and Firefox immediately exited. Started Firefox, pressed CTRL+Q and the Firefox immediately exited. I guess I'll have to keep looking for an extension to fix this. :-(

    Doesn't work

    Please add a note to the TITLE saying that it DOESN'T work on Linux.

    This doesn't work for me (Firefox 57.0.1 on Debian Stretch with i3wm)

    Unfortunately, the add-on doesn't work – Ctrl+q still closes Firefox. I'm running it on two machines, both of which run the i3 window manager on Ubuntu (17.04 and 17.10, respectively) and Firefox 57.0.1.

    Man, I was so sick of accidentally quitting Firefox and having to wait for it to reopen a zillion tabs gain. This extension is wonderful.

    Useless on Linux
  • by Mark, 7 years ago
    Not the right place to put this, but for Ubuntu users, here's a workaround:
    * System Settings (in Ubuntu)
    * Keyboard
    * Shortcuts
    * Custom shortcuts
    * Add a new one with command ':' and any name
    * Assign ctrl+Q to it.
    This disables ctrl+Q for all programs, not just Firefox.

    Doesn't work on linux 14.04 - Firefox 57.0 still closes after Ctrl+Q :(

    Does not work in Firefox 57. I'm using Ubuntu 14.04 LTS.

    WebExtension, does exactly what it says on the box. Works perfectly on Firefox Quantum on OS X 10.12

    Works like a charm on Windows 10 (1703)

    Thanks for the confirmation. You are the second to confirm that it works on WIndows 10. So it seems that the add-on works fine on macOS and Windows, but not on Linux.

    Doesn't seem to work any more with new Firefox 57 :-(

    Sorry, I don't know how to reply here, so I hope you see my edit: I am using Ubuntu 16.04. The plugin loads, but Ctrl+Q still closes the browser. Let me know if you need more info and thanks for any help!

    Which OS are you using?
  • by gianni, 7 years ago
    I can confirm that this doesn't work at all under firefox 57 and linux ubuntu 17.10. I don't give a one star because it works elsewhere :-) I'm sure that the developer will fix this. Thanks for your work, and I hope for a fix in linux.
