In Firefox the / key is bound to quick find, so it's there in spirit.

  Firefox also allows to search without bringing up the search bar first by setting "accessibility.typeaheadfind" in "about:config" to true. Reducing the timeout for the search bar to disappear after the last keypress is very useful as well. This is hidden behind "accessibility.typeaheadfind.timeout". Caveat: is messes with pages that use normal letters as keyboard inputs, like WASD as movement keys. One might need to disable it temporarily if that happens.

    I use Firefox developer edition - I assume that's set up by default. Though I've learned to work around it, it has driven me mad for so long - I didn't know you could turn it off! Finally, it's fixed! Thank you!
