Affected Version:

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. open a diff in the new change screen
2. press $

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

I would expect $ to move the cursor to the end of the line (since the new change screen uses vim motions to move the cursor), but instead the key triggers a change of file.

What version are you using? In the Gerrit instance for the Gerrit Project "$" does move the curser to the end of line. At least in my Firefox. Are you using some browser or add-ons that do something else with "$"?

I'm using gerrit 2.9.1 and can reproduce on the gerrit instance of the gerrit project using both chrome and safari.

It may be linked to the fact I'm using an azerty keyboard.
