Before you reach for it…
Dia gets there first.
Keyboard shortcuts are what you use when you already know the next move: they get you where you need to go, without pulling out the whole map. But sometimes we all need a little reminder.
Starting today, when you open a Tab Context Menu (CTRL + click), you’ll see the keyboard shortcut right next to the action—including the ones you’ve customized yourself.
To celebrate this update, we asked folks at BCNY which shortcuts keep their day moving:
Use this when it’s time to get serious: “I love it because it lets me switch working modes... sidebar is when stuff gets real.”

Go full focus mode with this. Just two taps and there’s nothing but the page in front of you.

The reset we all need because, “sometimes you just need to nuke your tabs for your own mental health.”

And those are just the ones we can’t live without.
If you’re curious about our other shortcuts (or want to make a few of your own)head to Dia → Settings → Shortcuts.
You’ll find the full list there. If a combination doesn’t feel natural, you can change it. Once you do, the Tab Context Menu will show your version, too.
The best moments when using a browser are the ones you don’t have to think about. Luckily, Dia’s built to stay a step ahead.
If you’ve got a shortcut that keeps you moving, share it with us. We want to hear from you!

I personally love the Freestyle 2 for Mac. It's the simplest split mechanical keyboard I've ever found - simply plug in & start using. What it lacks for in customization, it makes up for in macOS integration (there's a ⌘ key)!
