How to disable Ctrl + Shift + C shortcut in Firefox?

Tags:

Pressing Ctrl+Shift+C in Firefox opens the developer tools and activates the "Pick element" tool.

I often mistakenly use this shortcut when I want to copy something (mixing it up with the shortcut to copy text in terminals).

It's really annoying since

  • it doesn't copy the text
  • it opens the developer tools
  • I can't even close the developer tools by using this shortcut again, I need to reach for the mouse to close it

One solution appeared to be the Firefox "customizable shortcuts" extensions, but it has been discontinued.

Any other idea?
