Pentadactyl/Vimperator will soon stop working, I believe at FireFox 57. Firefox is removing the ability to run XUL extensions, which will effectively be the end of the awesome VIM plugins for FF :(
- deathcakes 9y agoI've recently made the switch to VimFX as a result of this and I have to say I couldn't be happier - it may not have some of the more powerful features (that I'm unaware of) but it definitely gets the job done.
- pmoriarty 9y agoIs VimFX going to continue to work when Pentadactyl breaks?
- The-Compiler 9y agoOnly if it gets turned into a WebExtension: https://github.com/akhodakivskiy/VimFx/issues/860 https://github.com/akhodakivskiy/VimFx/issues/860
- lelandbatey 9y agoI also switched to VimFX from Vimperator, and it blew my mind how much faster Firefox suddenly became! I used to simpathixe with my friend who switched back to Chrome "for it's speed" but without Vimperator, Firefox is waaaaay snappier than Chrome (on my machine). It made browsing a fun tactile experience again!
