Turning a Keyboard into a Mouse with Libevdev
I also enjoyed using https://github.com/rvaiya/warpd on my mac. But was hit with few bugs, where the pointer used to get stuck. Had to keep restarting. But still a nice program to ditch mouse.

using keyboard
for something similar that works with anything even beyond your browser there's warpd. I haven't used it I just know it exists. If you're into custom keyboards QMK can send mouse movements from keypresses too.

Compiling Problem
So I am trying to compile warpd, i followed and installed the dependencies, but when I make, it outputs wayland-client.h not found. Fair enough, I installed geckolinux TW Plasma, NVIDIA working fine, X11 session. I used "zypper se", it showed wayland is installed but nevermind; in the docs they have said that you can 'Set options' to only compile X11 binary. I want only that but I am just racking my brain where to insert 'DISABLE_WAYLAND' option. I know its a most basic and obvious setting but i come from arch where i fully relied on AUR for building so i zero compiling knowledge. I tried RTFM but idk what I have to find. I would be helpful if someone helps me here

How to avoid mouse in macos?
Hey there! You should definitely check out warpd. It's a modal keyboard-driven pointer manipulation program that can help you control the pointer on your screen using just your keyboard.

Ask HN: Programs that saved you 100 hours? (2022 edition)
warpd avoided me spending a lot of time going from the keyboard to the mouse,for simple point and clicks. Honestly it is super useful.

Ask HN: What's the best way to control a cursor from the keyboard on macOS?
I'd like to minimize my need for a mouse but there are some tasks which are just so much simpler with a cursor. I do have some mouse keys setup with Karabiner so that holding "k" and pressing esdf moves the cursor, but I've found this difficult to get used to. I have a few different keys to modify the speed, but it just feels way too convoluted and effortful to to control the cursor this way.
I've also tried warpd [1] but had some issues with it that turned me off to it.
Curious to know if anyone here has had success with something else

TPMouse: control the cursor with the homerow, even if you don't have a ThinkPad
I actually wrote this after seeing https://github.com/rvaiya/warpd on HackerNews and saw multiple people lament that they'd like to be able to use that for Windows. You should definitely check that out!

Is there a way to get the current data folder?
If you know the names of the folders in advance it's possible to make a different mapping in each of the folders to load a different file per datafolder but with the same keys. There is no variable system in Vieb, and as such there are no commands that will need or use the datafolder as an argument. This specific question would best be solved by a proper bookmark system which would load a file from the datafolder anyway, without having to build this in manually. Work on this has started some time ago, but has recently stalled: https://github.com/Jelmerro/Vieb/pull/391 If you or anyone else is up to the task feel free to pick this up again, as I don't use bookmarks at all so it's of little use to me personally, and as such have bigger priority tickets to work on in Vieb most of the time.

A way to hide the scrollbar completely + darkreader takes a sec to apply darkmode..
For the time being you can keep using the extension, but once 9.0.0 is released extension support will indeed be removed. To modify the styling, you can use the new "userstyle" setting to inject custom styling into any page, the relevant commit is here. Once that version is released you can find the help for it with :help userstyle, though that isn't in any released version yet (You can always build it yourself to get it early).
-
Will Vieb support extensions in future?
In the current releases there is experimental support for it, but this will be dropped soon due to the lack of compatibility. Instead I will focus my efforts towards integrating commonly requested features, which has started with the integration of sponsorblock and darkreader. So unless by a miracle somebody will contribute a working extension integration, full extension support is not something Vieb will have. You can find more info on Github, and also suggest extensions you want to be in Vieb: https://github.com/Jelmerro/Vieb/issues/385

Vieb 8.0.0: chromium 102, performance and security improvements, add source viewer, add readerview, better adblocking, support prompts (and block dialogs), custom useragents, bugfixes for: follow labels, composing keyboards, url encoding and much more
Extensions are hard, and the current implementation is as far as I can personally make them work, which is sadly not good enough. I'm considering dropping support altogether and implementing major ones into Vieb (such as some sort of darkreader). Extensions are such a daunting task that even implementing multiple extensions from scratch seems easier than trying to make all of them work as proper extensions, this is also the approach used for the new sourceviewer and reader view (both of which use package to render the views, but are still integrated into Vieb as if a native part of it). The current progress of making extensions work is tracked in this ticket: https://github.com/Jelmerro/Vieb/issues/130, but it's been stuck at basic extensions (such as dark reader) without GUI for a while, and even those fail to install occasionally for the most obscure and random reasons, it's just not very stable at all.
