I love the Firefox extensions! (I hope they will stay for a while, using tons of quite old extensions) Extensions that have no even chrome extension: - tree style tab: nested tabs on the side of the screen - Imagus: elaborate image preview on mouse-over - FF Rocker: click right+left for history back and the other way around for forward (there is a chrome extension, but it's no fun) - grab and drag: I hold right click to scroll as if I was dragging the scroll bar handle (only works for single-core FF :/) (there is a chrome extension, but it's no fun) - All-in-Sidebar: bookmarks, downloads etc in a sidebar - tab grenade: store all open tabs in a link list and close them (might have a chrome equivalent) - Link Alert: hover to see if you are going to an external page or pdf or image (might have a chrome equivalent) - Vimperator/Pentadactyl: vim style shortcuts for everything, no more clicking. Currently both projects struggle to stay compatible with recent FF versions, can't recommend to switch to it now :/

What vi-mode extension would you recommend? Vimperator always seemed worse than Vimium (on Chrome), mainly because the scrolling is jittery.

  I scroll full pages or with the mouse. But I'd really like to have a scroll marker. My not quite working attempt at one: https://greasyfork.org/en/scripts/20937-red-read-line https://greasyfork.org/en/scripts/20937-red-read-line With that in working I wouldn't need smoothing much anymore and could scroll half pages without confusion. I'm currently stuck to pentadactyl, would try vimperator again, but don't want to set it up. Would have to see how to port my pocket script and such.

  Try giving VimFx a go. It's a Firefox port of Vimium. Has less features than Vimperator but doesn't alter the browser UI as much. It's also compatible with multiprocess Firefox.
