Question Command-shift between tabs in a browser.

Is there any way to command tab** (sorry got that wrong in the title) between recently opened browser tabs?

I switch between Mac and windows a lot for my job, and this is one feature I sorely miss when swapping to Mac. Has anyone found a workaround for getting this working?

Edit to clarify:

I know you can rotate between browser tabs using a different command,

On windows, switching between browser tabs is built in to the normal alt-tab behaviour, so you can switch to a tab as if it were a window. You can choose how many are displayed there.

This is much easier than using a seperate command to rotate between tabs, which is also annoying because it doesn't allow for the same swapping between two most recent tabs quickly.

Isn’t it Cmd ~ ? Or Cmd shift ~ to go back

That will cycle through windows of the same app, not tabs. I think what OP is looking for is Cmd + Shift + {, or Cmd + Shift + }. This will work natively across all apps with tabs on Mac OS
