I'm surprised no one has mentioned Surfingkeys https://github.com/brookhong/Surfingkeys. I switched over from Vimium a couple years ago. I think its more performant than Vimium and also allows you quite a bit more flexibility in your configuration.
I prefer and recommend browser add-ons over Nyxt. You'll get more compatibility by being able to use Chrome/Firefox. You'll also have a much higher chance of being able to use the same environment at work - since you can typically still install browser add-ons in developer mode even if you aren't able to get rights to install apps.

markdownload
A Firefox and Google Chrome extension to clip websites and download them into a readable markdown file.
I'll stick with using Markdownload (https://github.com/deathau/markdownload) when I need to do something like this.

web-archives
Browser extension for viewing archived and cached versions of web pages, available for Chrome, Edge and Safari
>Hopefully they are also making substantial donations to the Internet Archive, since they will be directing a lot of traffic into it and basically using their infrastructure as a feature on their main product
WebArchive link is hidden so deep in the "About the source" page that vast majority of Google users won't even know that it exists.
There is excellent browser extension called Web Archives[0] that hooks all major web archiving services e.g. Archive.is, Wayback Machine and others in one place.

Project mention: WebShield – A new wide-spectrum content blocker for Safari | news.ycombinator.com | 2025-02-28
To set a baseline: Ad blockers work by a combination of static rulesets and dynamic javascript.
Safari does not support the ruleset format of Chrome/Firefox, so a ruleset has to be maintained for it specifically. In practice this is always the AdGuard ruleset. I doubt a single adblocker doesn't use this as a base.
Beyond that is the custom JS they inject. It's hard to say how good it is but that is the only selling point:
- https://github.com/arjpar/WebShield/tree/cae7629f1c5fb79fe76...
AdGuard has its own too:
- https://github.com/AdguardTeam/AdGuardForSafari/tree/master/... (JS files)
They look similar in a lot of ways, because well they have to, but I haven't done any deep analysis.
Safari extensions will never match uBlock Origin because it simply does not provide the same APIs (webRequest blocking and DNS) that Firefox does.
