Yeah I have now tried vimium and tridactyl and seem to prefer the later even though native mode doesn't function on OpenBSD. One thing I have noticed is I cannot get the mkt command in #Tridactyl to write a config file anywhere. I even added directory locations in the Firefox unveil file but still no joy ??
If you didn't use #Qutebrowser which Firefox extension would you use for a similar experience, #Vimium or #Tridactyl and why ?

Day 16 Tabs โš™

Tabs arenโ€™t something I use. I know you can use gt, and Gt to go to the next/previous tab. I use actually that with #Tridactyl, the plugin for Firefox/Librewolf, that brings #Vim keybindings in your browser.

Tridactyl Cheat Sheet

Most common and important commands for Firefox's extension Tridactyl. Source : https://github.com/tridactyl/tridactyl

Cheatography

I've just discovered that <C-a> and <C-x> can be used with Tridactyl to increment/decrement URL in the same way as it can be used on Vim/NeoVim to increment/decrement integers (or other things with plugins, like changing boolean values, day or month names, etc).

This is quite useful to check XEPs on https://xmpp.org/extensions/ ! For instance if you are checking XEP-0499, <C-a> will open the XEP-0500.

@bovine3dom This firefox fork integrated #Tridactyl FYI

I'm testing #tridactyl after a couple of years of using #vimium

My only conclusion atm is: do not fuck with my muscle memory!

Tridactyl 1.24.3 released, disables smooth scroll in FF141+ because it's totally broken. A real fix will come eventually

Update via about:addons -> cog in top right -> check for updates -> restart Firefox

Really rushed this out so imagine some bugs will have crept in, please report them here or via GitHub as usual โค๏ธ

#tridactyl #firefox

So. For my first day doing mostly no mouse. I did some job research. Realized that some sites like dockdockgo are fully usable without a mouse but other like linkedin are almost impossible. It's easy to write with mastodon but trying to get to my notification can be hard using the hint mode of #tridactyl sometimes. I coded a #python script to find jobs within my terminal using #remoteok's API. I did everything with nvim under tmux. I can really get a confortable environement like that. But my brain hurts right now. All of this feels like relearning bicycle. I didn't have any deal breaker.

I've been using Tridactyl[1] for a long time now for keyboard-driven vi bindings in the browser and yesterday decided to check out the alternatives, thinking maybe they provided some interesting features too.

I looked them all up: Vimium, Vimium C, Vimmatic, SurfingKeys and the result is: I am in awe of how advanced Tridactyl is in comparison to all of them.

Native messaging*, comprehensive ex command mode for commands and settings with live-previewed completions; hint-based visual selection, copying and focus; support for local filesystem text-based configuration; binding sequential browser actions to custom commands; tab group commands; actually launching (neo)vim to edit text areas; ...to name a few!

* do bear in mind the security implications of native messaging, as noted by the developers themselves, but you can have most of the functionality without it
