Facebook Hotkeys for the Home Page, Notifications, and Photos

Facebook users can navigate several areas of the site using hotkey keyboard shortcuts rather than a mouse. As part of the recently expanded rollout of the light box photo viewing design, Facebook showed prompts announcing some hotkeys. These join the existing set that allow for rapid browsing of a user’s home page, notifications, search bar, account and privacy settings, Help Center and a few other areas.

With users spending an average of 46 minutes a day on the site, these hotkeys, especially one for returning to the home page / news feed, could save users a lot of time.
