    Fixes easily the change tab shortcut issue of late Firefox. Bravo.

    on mac, using the combination option + command + left/right arrow keys, the tabs switch but it goes two tabs instead of just one. You prob just need to change a value for the mac settings to fix this bug

    Thank you for your report. I can't think of a reason that it should work differently on Mac -- adding or subtracting 1 from the active tab position should be the same. Does your window have any hidden tabs, add-on tabs, or special built-in tabs that I might not be accounting for?

    This was a native function I loved (and gone on new ffox versions) . A must have when you are a mouseless user (Vim like user) . Now, thanks I can switch without using my monkey mouse . Love

    It doesn't allow cltr+~ I don't know to what else I would bind that. Close letters to my hand are already taken.

    I guess I'll settle for alt+q, alt+a, since ~ is too far anyway - I realized!

    Great addon! for some reason firefox devs don't know what hotkey is... If you want to have past "6" tabs, u can't cycle between adjacent tabs in any meaningful way...

    Sometimes doesn't work and then it moves twice, also when ctrl+f is on it doesn't switch I use alt+a, alt+z, but I don't have really any other options...

    Thank you so much for making this, it helps tremendously!!!

    Does exactly what I was looking for coming from Mac and wanting the same shortcuts on Windows. Thanks!

    Tried various combinations but doesn't appear to work on Mac.

    Thank you for testing.

    Any improvement if you assign your own shortcuts: https://support.mozilla.org/kb/manage-extension-shortcuts-firefox

    (If you are testing in a private window, make sure to also enable the extension to run in private windows.)
