Just tried this one, works great on M1 Max. No delays.

  I'm using it on a M1 Max and it's pretty slow to initialize the yellow key options... even when the setting is on "immediate". I took a screencast: https://imgur.com/a/xL5CgJ2 https://imgur.com/a/xL5CgJ2 With Vimium when you hit "f" it actually appears immediately. It takes a full second with Shortcat.

    Yep, this is exactly what I'm talking about.

    The app in the screencast is Firefox; if you run Accessibility Inspector.app and try to inspect, for instance, the "NN minutes ago" link text in your comment, this is what it looks like in Firefox [0] and this is what it looks like in Safari [1]. Firefox (and Chrome) look like giant completely opaque windows to the macOS accessibility API, the only things you can "see" to click on are the close/minimize/maximize buttons, whereas Safari exposes its entire interface and a lot of the web page to the API. It looks like Homerow is somehow scraping a short list of apps, "Popular non-native apps such as Chrome, Firefox, Brave, Arc, Visual Studio Code, Spotify, Slack, Discord, and Obsidian are supported. I'm working on supporting more non-native apps." I don't know how shortcat etc do it.

      I don’t think it has anything to do with FF. Happens with every app I’ve tried including the macOS settings app. I’ll try Homerow.
