smh

Now you need to press two separate buttons on the keyboard (if your fingers can find them in time) when you click something and immediately want to abort and go back.

Oh good. That was horribly annoying cause when making a post I'd sometimes accidentally go back a page instead of deleting words.

You can fix it in about:config

Find the "backspace" setting, change it from 2 to 0.

(I personally prefer having it disabled, but for those who don't, there's how to revert to old behavior. Also setting it to 1 makes backspace scroll up the page. In both cases, shift+bkspace does the opposite.)

Thanks it works!

Hope firefox doesn't discover about this and remove it from about config in the next update
