Is there a shortcut to deattach tabs from one browser window so it turns into seperate window, so that you don't need to deattach tabs with clicking and dragging them with mouse?

Chosen solution

There isn't a built-in shortcut for this, as far as I can tell. Several people created add-ons to do it. Of the ones I found in a quick search (detach tab), this one has the most users and the reviews are good:

Right-click a tab > Move Tab > Move to New Window. Faster method with the keyboard; right-click tab then type vw.
