Also, in Chrome Ctrl-Shift-T will not work in private mode however in Firefox it does.

The same keyboard shortcut also works in Firefox. ctrl-shift-n will also re-open an entire window, or at least it does in Firefox. (Provided that the active window is another Firefox window that wasn't closed.)
Also if you accidentally close/kill your browser window then launching a fresh one and doing Ctrl + Shift + T will reopen all of the tabs you previously had open!
combining SHIFT with other keys often inverts their function (by design).
Space bar will scroll down the page of most web browsers. SHIFT+spacebar will scroll up.
Tab will move to a new element on a web form.
SHIFT+tab will move "backward" to the previous element in the form.

I personally like the Shit key better (typo in title)
I would assume most people already know this shortcut
Just today I mistakenly muddled a SHift key in with my Ctrl on the left pinky on my HHKB Pro 2 and the tab that arrived was not the blank new tab I expected, it was a tab I just closed. I did it again, just to be sure, and I got the previous tab! A stack of recently closed tabs. How marvellous!
Then I checked the ellipsis menu and saw that indeed the shortcut key combinationw was listed next to the tab at the top of that list.
