Works the same as M-b for me (backwards-word)

Make sure your /etc/inputrc or ~/.inputrc contains

# mappings for Ctrl-left-arrow and Ctrl-right-arrow for word moving

"\e[1;5C": forward-word

"\e[1;5D": backward-word

"\e[5C": forward-word

"\e[5D": backward-word

"\e\e[C": forward-word

"\e\e[D": backward-word`

It would have been funnier if you put in β€œ\e;D5c1-7” or whatever the fuck VT-100 gobbledegook

Idk if you know but you van actually save a post or comment pressing the button "save" under it. It will appear in your profile in a section of saved stuff.

Didn’t know that. My lemmy app doesn’t have a comment save button.
