Putting this here with zero expectations but kinda hopeful there’s a workaround.
I like to keep my hands on my keyboard and I can `command-L` `hn` `return` my way to Algolia quickly from an open browser.
But why oh why doesn’t the search input have focus by default. And since it doesn’t why can’t I type `/` to get focus on the search input. I guess by now the three tab presses should be muscle memory for that but I’m so annoyed by that fact I refuse to internalize it.
Apologies for the random rant
- walterbell 2y agoCreate a greasemonkey/userscript for existing browser extension? Possibly useful example: https://github.com/imdj/HNRelevant https://github.com/imdj/HNRelevant
- niutech 2y agoIn Firefox, just add a bookmark for https://hn.algolia.com/?dateRange=all&page=0&prefix=false&sort=byPopularity&type=all&query=%s https://hn.algolia.com/?dateRange=all&page=0&prefix=false&so..., edit it and add a keyword like "hn". Then type in the address bar: "hn whatever" and it will show you SERP for whatever. Another way is to add the OpenSearch engine (https://mycroftproject.com/install.html?id=84751&basename=hackernews_search&icontype=gif&name=Hacker+News+Search+%28via+hn.algolia.com%29 https://mycroftproject.com/install.html?id=84751&basename=ha...) to Firefox and assign a shortcut key to it: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/assign-shortcuts-search-engines https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/assign-shortcuts-search...
