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

I made Homerow, it's the same idea as Vimium, but for the entire macOS user interface. https://homerow.app

Oh, How I wish this for pesky Windows 11!

Vimium-C and 'Vimium-C for PDF' gives more functionality that Vimium couldn't.

Highly recommend Vimium too. It’s also a great way to test for accessibility as you’ll need good navigation attributes for it to work well.

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.) https://www.qutebrowser.org/ https://luakit.github.io/

I wanted to like qutebrowser, also for the minimalist interface. But not supporting ublock is a showstopper for me. Is that still the case?

There's also the nyxt browser which can be setup to vi or emacs bindings https://github.com/atlas-engineer/nyxt

Random tidbit: Wasavi sounds like Swedish for "what did we say".

It also sounds like a spin-off from the creator of the Wasa ship.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vasa_(ship)

“From the creators of the ship that wouldn’t float, now comes the editor that won’t edit!”

No wait, that’s not a great slogan. Hmm.

Perhaps from the makers of Wasa knäckebröd

https://www.wasa.com/global/

“You become what you code. Crunchy!”

Sounds like a weird slogan also heh

Does anyone else us Tridactyl for firefox?

I was using it but I stopped for some reason, I might give it another go. I think it had a few annoying bugs so I stopped using it.

Come to think about it, I don't think it works as an "editor" in HTML text fields?
