I just went through a long list of keyboard shortcuts for Firefox. One that I didn’t see that I would find useful is to press something like ⇧ Shift + ⌘ + C to copy the URL and then paste it into an email or message to send to someone. Does something like this exist?
Personally I just use Ctrl+L to quickly access to the URL Bar and then use Ctrl+C, I know is not exactly what you are searching but it works for me.
Well yes…
Ctrl+LthenCtrl+Cgets it.I don’t know a single shortcut, but does Ctrl-L Ctrl-C do what you want?
It does!
Just F6 and then whatever your OS has to copy to clipboard.
Thank you. That worked!

Hope it helps.
This looks quite interesting
Besides what others have said with Ctrl+L then Ctrl+C, you could use an extension for custom shortcuts like this:

And I checked and their is an option that you can set to copy url of the page you are on.
Generic shortcuts -
F6andCtrl+Lboth get the URL selected.Ctrl+Ccan copy - switch window and paste.Alternatively, if the windows are both open you can drag the Padlock icon (certainly with Firefox) to your field.
I do ⌘ + L to move focus to the url bar then ⌘ + C to copy
edit: apparently others have already said this and those comments just haven’t gotten to my server yet
Install Vimium C browser extension and then you press just ‘y’-key twice. It means yank in vim.
I wish there was browser extension that let me use vim keyboard binding inside of text boxes like this one.
You can configure Qutebrowser for that. In Qutebrowser the insert mode isn’t that intuitive as in bloated browsers, but you get used to it.
My Qutebrowser uses Vim keys for scrolling and browsing, but in insert mode I use Emacs keybinds. Best of both worlds (for me).
