Go to the previous page with backspace

[leobel96]

I don't know if this is a feature request or an issue but I've found the lack of a useful feature: a shortcut to go back to the previous page without having to click on the left arrow on the top bar. In Firefox, you can use backspace to accomplish it.

Based on brave/browser-laptop#6156 (comment)

I believe the long term fix for this will be installing an extension (like this one)

Going to close this as wontfix as this can be achieved with an extension.

Ok, thank you.

I've discovered now that it can be accomplished with ALT + LeftArrow !!

[bsclifton]

Yup- extension would be the way to go. Although, I prefer the ALT + LeftArrow (or Cmd + LeftArrow on macOS) 😄

so just fyi. i tried the TWO extensions i found and neither worked. whats is agravating me the most is before i synced on this fresh install it WORKED, and i didn't have any extensions installed. i have linux ubuntu based os.

can i just add a keyboard shortcut? cuz im not pressing 2 keys when i can quickly hit 1 larger one faster.
