  • tridactyl

    A Vim-like interface for Firefox, inspired by Vimperator/Pentadactyl.

    You might be able to fix the ctrl-f thing in Tridactyl with `:help blacklistkeys`, although I'm not sure it will catch keys with modifiers.

    Follow https://github.com/tridactyl/tridactyl/issues/2712 if you want updates when that's added. It would help if you could link to the website that hijacks ctrl-f in that issue :)

  • html5-boilerplate

    A professional front-end template for building fast, robust, and adaptable web apps or sites.

    Not sure why this became a trend my guess is back when everyone was trying to update their website to support mobile devices, they want to deliver an 'app-like' experience and as native apps don't let you pinch zoom the native UI where ever you like websites followed suit.

    I guess the issue now is it has become part of the cargo cult with people including these meta tags in their base templates without knowing what it does and failing to implement a suitable layout for all mobile device screen sizes and DPIs.
