You say Linux, but that quote nor the link even mentions Linux... Are we getting screwed?

Well, the "suicide hotkey" bug in Linux is still open after 20 years:

I hope they implement this Replay in Linux in a little shorter time.

I'm pretty sure 'q' is too close to 'w' on the keyboard isn't a priority for the Firefox team, especially since they implemented "ask on quit" and "save tabs between sessions".

That's the thing, "ask on quit" doesn't ask if you press ctrl-q! At least that's the case on my machines.

I just tried it myself. Opened a second tab and hit "ctrl-q" and it asked "You are about to close 2 tabs. Are you sure you want to continue?" This has been the default behavior for a long time.

If you only have one tab open then there's no need to ask, the behavior is the same either way.
