Rules

While we are not an official Mozilla community, we have adopted the Mozilla Community Participation Guidelines as far as it can be applied to a bin.

Rules

Always be civil and respectful
Don't be toxic, hostile, or a troll, especially towards Mozilla employees. This includes gratuitous use of profanity.
Don't be a bigot
No form of bigotry will be tolerated.
Don't post security compromising suggestions
If you do, include an obvious and clear warning.
Don't post conspiracy theories
Especially ones about nefarious intentions or funding. If you're concerned: Ask. Please don’t fuel conspiracy thinking here. Don’t try to spread FUD, especially against reliable privacy-enhancing software. Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence. Show credible sources.
Don't accuse others of shilling
Send honest concerns to the moderators and/or admins, and we will investigate.
Do not remove your help posts after they receive replies
Half the point of asking questions in a public sub is so that everyone can benefit from the answers—which is impossible if you go deleting everything behind yourself once you've gotten yours.

Is there a Keyboard Shortcut to put the focus on Firefox's Sidebar?

I use the Add-On "Bookmark search plus 2" which is really awesome. When I activate it's Keyboard Shortcut (Ctrl + Q), the Sidebar opens, but I have to use my mouse to click on the Sidebar to grant it focus. I looked around online and haven't found anything. If anyone knows of a way, a Keyboard Shortcut, a tool or another Add-On perhaps, please let me know! Cheers!

@Cr8zy_Ivan@fedia.io No, unfortunately - see & vote for https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1502713. (I use BSP2, too.)

I doubt any extension could do it either (new WebExtension API deems such behavior/functionality insecure/too privileged).

I hope it could be customizable by "user.js" or a similar javascript file put in your Firefox profile. If anyone finds anything, report here, please.

Partial alternative: Right click at BSP2 icon > "Open BSP2 in a Tab". Potentially pin the tab. Then Ctrl+TAB to switch back and forth. For other extensions, figure out "moz-extension://..." URL to their files shown in the sidebar. It may not work exactly well/same as in a sidebar (or it may work better).
