Hi 🙂
I was told to type `?` for available keyboard shortcuts.
It tells that typing `b` does `Bookmark post`.
However, it seems to not do the same as clicking on `show more` then on `bookmark this post`.
Instead, it seems to bookmark topics, instead of posts, like the `Bookmark` button at the end.
Am I missing sth, or is it a bug?

I believe you have to select the post first using `j` or `k` to navigate up and down. You’ll see a vertical red line on the selected post. Then you can press `b` to bookmark the post.

Thank you. 🙂
Curious that it don’t use the position set with the mouse, which we find in the URL. But maybe this is a design that keyboard shortcut users are accustomed to.
Or maybe it’s remaining bugs: I got errors like “Cannot bookmark the same post twice”, often when using both the keyboard shortcuts and the bookmark buttons, but also when I type `b` twice in a row.

Why, when I press `b` to bookmark the post, it does not turn the bookmark button of the post in blue?

Hmm, that is interesting. Only clicking it makes it blue.

I get this error if I ask for bookmark a post twice, including at least 1 `b`, but notably with 2 consecutive `b`.

All these pbs are solved if I reload the page.
