w3m.vim VS vimium-c

I also recommended vimium-c (https://github.com/gdh1995/vimium-c). It's like vimium on steroid: with a bunch of additional useful features.

I also don't think that finger operated trackballs necessarily rest the thumb more, given many default to a scroll wheel on the side, but I appreciate ambidextrous models. The Kensington Orbit is a very affordable and well-built trackball, although its buttons are annoyingly clicky, apparently don't last long for many people, and it only has two buttons with the possibility of pressing them together (chording) to get another button (like the middle button). I'm much more optimistic about using it this time, since the last time I used the Kensington Orbit I had not yet discovered/installed the vimium-c browser extension, which lets you browse entirely with the keyboard, so in my case I now don't have to use forward/back buttons and middle clicks nearly as often I used to.

It has quite a few extra features/improvements; for more information: https://github.com/gdh1995/vimium-c/wiki

Vimium C (https://github.com/gdh1995/vimium-c) supports link hinting by simply typing a few characters of the link you want to press. It also searches the actual url and alt-text for links without text (such as buttons and icons). I found it by accident looking through its settings and it has by far been the best improvement to my browsing experience since discovering tabs.

I use gdh1995/vimium-c.

The purpose is to be used in conjunction with browser addons such as vimium-c, where you can copy a url with just yy, and then launch this script and have it open mpv.
