I’m probably oblivious though seeing as how I used the search and the “Your topic is similar to…” does not produce anything like I’m asking: Is there a keyboard shortcut to return to the category that the post is from? For example, an employee or user is only concerned with all the items in category X and none of the stuff in all the other categories. How would they click to return to that category and not new (g, n) or unread (g,u) or the list of all categories (g,c)? I get that there is a back button within the browser but I’m asking about withing Discourse. As a moderator, I never really thought about it because I (g,n, j,j,j,j,j,j,j…) but one of my user asked it and realized I have no idea. Love me some Discourse. :heart:

LOL, apparently, back (u) is a button on the keyboard shortcuts that I have never used. FULL SPEED AHEAD. And yes it puts you right back in the location so.. that happened.
