Firefox 84 (and earlier ...and later...): When copying from Firefox to the terminal, we tend to mistakenly use Shift+Ctrl+c to copy text (since that is how it is done in the terminal emulator. In Firefox, this very disruptivaly opens a developer console, which is not easily closed (i.e., you can't press the same key to close it). How can we disable that keybinding? I would not mind disabling the developer tools in their entirety if that is what solved this usability issue.
I don't think we can anymore. Even through about:config you can set it to false but it still opens the developer console. There is 1 option that is guaranteed to work but it is not the nicest of methods: change the source and compile firefox. File ...
./devtools/startup/locales/en-US/key-shortcuts.properties
has an ...
inspector.commandkey=C
Change that to something else and recompile firefox.
