Being able to customize my browser in lisp would be great, before I switch I'd need this browser to have something like:
- unlock Origin (for feature rich and sophisticated ad blocking)
- uMatrix (per-domain and subdomain Javascript blocking)
- NoScript (more Javascript exploit protection)
- Pentadactyl and/or Evil (vim-like modal browsing)
Lack of the first three was why I never switched to qutebrowser, despite it having a nice Pentadactyl-like UI.
- usrn 4y agoBy default it more or less has everything besides ublock (which is why I haven't switched yet either.)
- tremon 4y agoYes, same here. I want to want this, but the lack of third-party resource control (I'm a big uMatrix user) means I don't trust most browsers, and I don't want to resort to running my browser in a container. I thought that earlier versions (when it was still called Next) did support keyboard-based browsing, but maybe I'm misremembering (I toyed with uzbl too). The first thing I'd want for keyboard-based navigation would be an easily accessible cheat sheet.
- Jtsummers 4y agohttps://nyxt.atlas.engineer/documentation https://nyxt.atlas.engineer/documentation It does support keyboard-based navigation, and you can define your own bindings to any of the functions so you can alter the defaults or extend them to your own purposes. Scroll down to "Visual mode" for their take on vim-like bindings.
- jarbus 4y agoYou can disable javascript in qutebrowser, and the default adblocker works pretty good if you remember to update your sources, but I agree that it's not like ublock Origin
- pmoriarty 4y ago> You can disable javascript in qutebrowser uMatrix gives you way more fine-grained control over this (JS on/off per-domain and per-subdomain) along with lots of other features and a great UI that makes all this manageable. Just a simple on/off switch for JS is no comparison.
- The-Compiler 4y agoFWIW qutebrowser can disable JS (and also many other settings) per domain, though not on an as finegrained level as uMatrix. However, there is this: https://gitlab.com/jgkamat/jmatrix https://gitlab.com/jgkamat/jmatrix It's quite a hack and I have no idea where it is UI-wise, but it seems to work for some people at least.
- contravariant 4y agoIs there any need for NoSript with uMatrix and uBlock Origin?

- pedrodelfino 4y agoIt is great to see that you are interested in Nyxt! There is a whole article comparing Nyxt to extensions such as Pentadactyl (Vimium, Vimari, etc). Nyxt can do way more than them. Check it out: https://nyxt.atlas.engineer/article/nyxt-versus-plugins.org https://nyxt.atlas.engineer/article/nyxt-versus-plugins.org Also, it is already possible to have emacs and vi keybindings in Nyxt: https://nyxt.atlas.engineer/documentation https://nyxt.atlas.engineer/documentation
