Not sure if this is actually a bug or intended. But in the MacOS desktop app, command-W closes the tab (which is what I expected). In the Windows desktop app, ctrl-W closes the entire app. Is this the intended behavior? If so, is there a hotkey to close just the tab in the Windows desktop app?

Same question here. I just assumed it was the way it was intended until this post, but I’ve closed Fibery by accident many times because I hit CTRL+W by instinct.
