tridactyl_emacs_config VS tridactyl

You can change Firefox's default modifier to other key (so new tab will be, for example, A-n and you will be ablrle to bind C-n to "down"). You can check my config for tridactyl - I described it in readme

There is tridactyl with emacs bindings. It is far from perfect, but it brings some resemblance of Emacs hotkeys in Firefox.

You can change the modifier key used in Firefox bindings. Go to about:config page and set ui.key.accelKey to 91 (WinKey). After that C-n will be changed to Win-N. BTW you can use emacs bindings in Firefox, see https://github.com/jumper047/tridactyl_emacs_config

Regarding tridactyl, you can check my humble repo with emacs bindings here - https://github.com/jumper047/tridactyl_emacs_config

It's really cool, I've added an option to open these windows in floating mode automatically in my sway config through another application name iirc. Ans then I press a simple shortcut, and it opens my editor (Helix) with the already entered text and once I close it, it'll transfer the text from that temporary file which was open in your editor to the the input field/textare again.

as a pentadactly widow, i would recommend to anyone that is coming back to firefox tridactyl https://github.com/tridactyl/tridactyl

is it the same? no.

but is it close? hell yeah. it really helps me with productivity!

> I can't even edit the code that is taking focus and hijacking shortcuts!

You can remove the shortcuts pretty easily with a userscript, see lines ~410-440 here for inspiration: https://github.com/tridactyl/tridactyl/blob/2eaba7e4ceec6de5...

Wait until you find out about Tridactyl [0], which, among a plethora of other features, can activate a command line where you can perform all these searches (for example, `:tabopen` will list and activate fuzzy search of all opened tabs).

You might be interested in using a browser plugin like Tridactyl instead, I’ve been using it for months now absolutely no complaints, no need to “simulate” the mouse anymore just use page hints to click exactly the html element you want to https://github.com/tridactyl/tridactyl

Nearly everything on reddit uses reddit-flavored markdown. Backticks for inline code, as you discovered, but indent code blocks with four spaces. I use a browser extension so that I can edit all my comments in Vim, so manipulating this markup, especially code blocks, is easy.

I use tridactyl but the limitation of firefox API prevents addon to even change the built-in shortcuts: https://github.com/tridactyl/tridactyl/issues/1428.
