Horrible news. I use Vimperator, used to use Pentadactyl. The latter forked from the former, but they are still very closely related. Like Emacs and XEmacs.
They are addictive. They turn Firefox into a different kind of thing. I rely so much on custom commands like:
command -nargs=1 proxy set! network.proxy.type=<args>
command -nargs=+ -complete=url site open google site:<args>
map s :site<space>
I'm really afraid of Firefox breaking Vimperator long term. Alternatives are not that nice, and niche browsers tend to be brittle and insecure.
- imron 10y agoVimperator is one of two things that keep me on Firefox. The other is not having a single process per tab. I typically have 40-50 tabs open at any one time. On chrome that chews through memory. On Firefox it chews through significantly less.
