Only reason I haven't moved to Firefox on my Mac is that I can't reassign keyboard shortcut for tab change (without using any external software).

Firefox default is Cmd-Shift-[], which gives me pain in left hand if I use it too much. So I have used OS keyboard to reassign the tab change to Cmd-[]. Most apps seem to respect it, but Firefox doesn't.

Does anyone have a better solution?

https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/shortkeys/

allows you to set a keyboard shortcut for it (among other things)

disclaimer: I don't personally use it.

I don’t install any addons on my browser. Wish Firefox worked just like others.

Ctrl+tab and Ctrl+shift+tab also cycles through tabs on macos. Note: ctrl, not cmd

One problem with this is that it’s a combination keystroke involving two special keys and tab. That is bad for your fingers especially if it something like tab switch that you use a lot.

With Cmd-[] you just use total two keys which are easy with two hands.

I just noticed that CMD+Alt+left/right also work. You might be able to push CMD+ALT with one thumb and left/right with your right hand

I agree it's very annoying you can't change keyboard shortcuts in Firefox.

If you use the Mac trackpad, use BetterTouchTool to assign a gesture (I use tiptap left and tiptap right) to the switch tabs left and switch tabs right keyboard shortcuts. You can assign them per-app so it can send a different combo for Firefox than anything else.

As mentioned in the original post, I don’t want to install additional software. If I was open to that Karabiner would be perfect. Thanks!
