Same issue. Whether I want to open a private tab or save to pocket, this makes doing either cumbersome. Maybe just make it possible to remap shortcut keys?

+1 from community https://community.brave.com/t/keyboard-shortcut-duplication/1381. User reports this happens on opening a private tab

Since the community poster never responded, I can provide feedback on what seems like the same private tab issue. I've changed the Pocket shortcut now so they don't conflict but it was annoying that the default was the same as for private tabs. Here's what I experienced:

  1. I'm logged into Pocket
  2. I hit Cmd + Shift + P to open a new private tab
  3. The private tab opens, and I interact with it like normal
  4. When I switch back to the previous tab, the Pocket toast saying something like "Page saved to Pocket" is visible, and I have to delete the page from my Pocket list.

Any updates or workarounds to this? I am facing the issue with opening a private tab which automatically saves the link to Pocket (like reported above). It is annoying to clean up my pocket list every week due to this and I could not find a way to edit the hotkeys as well.
