If you like Vim, you should also check out Vimium - an extension, that enables Vim-like navigation in the browser. Never take your fingers off the home row! https://github.com/philc/vimium

Also firenvim while you’re at it to have neovim embedded in your browser.

I made Homerow, it's the same idea as Vimium, but for the entire macOS user interface.

I've been using FireNvim for quite a while now to turn textareas into editors. I like that this extension doesn't actually require vim/nvim to be installed on the system, but that also makes it a bit weaker. If everything happens in the browser then we're left only with a subset of what's possible with a full vim experience (plus, the user's vim configuration won't apply)

If you like Vimium, try qutebrowsers or Luakit, where keyboard is a first-class citizen that works everywhere and is not dependent on JS injection. May have a learning curve (took me about 3 days to get functional.)

Especially since apparently Wasavi is not a firefox plugin anymore apparently. There's no anchor to "Firefox add-on" on the page and the firefox plugin search turns up nothing.

Firenvim works in both Chrome and Firefox and you can harness the power of neovim, so that's a plus. Typing this from a neovim instance in firefox
