Tridactyl is much less extreme than Pentadactyl, at least out of the box. Probably the "worst" thing we do is override Ctrl-A and Ctrl-F.

FWIW - mostly for other interested readers - in Tridactyl we made hints which might be useless grey recently. They correspond to JavaScript events and are sometimes the only way to click a button. If you want Vimium-style behaviour where th

I am surprised that it doesn't support upvotes here (perhaps this gives away how stingy I am with upvotes). If you have time could you file an issue? https://github.com/tridactyl/tridactyl/issues/new Tha

There is a young project that does this for macOS [1]. I think I remember seeing a similar project for GTK but I might have imagined it. [1]: https://github.com/dexterleng/vimac

I addressed this preemptively earlier today [1]. As it happens, I would also like to enable or disable new tab pages without disabling an extension entirely. Perhaps you could file an issue with Mozilla asking for this functionality? I&#x27

b is the default bind for filtering and selecting tabs, so no configuration is needed there. We offer some help with userchrome via `:guiset` which I personally use, but you should beware that Mozilla break it fairly often (maybe once every

Why not optionally use JavaScript for the callback?

If Qutebrowser wants to stop its hints from overlapping, it might be helpful to look at the PR that added it to Tridactyl: https://github.com/tridactyl/tridactyl/pull/2259/files : )

by bovine3dom 6y ago
I can't answer for OP but I think Tridactyl's callback hint mode is more powerful than Qutebrowsers' spawn, as we provide the hinted element to the callback. That means you can do stuff like remove it from the page or make th

Tridactyl exists in the Arch community repos [1] if you would rather use that; you're effectively shifting your trust to an Arch trusted user away from some random person (me) and Mozilla. [1]: https://www.archlinux.org&#x2F

If it's just one or two binds that are causing issues on a site you can unbind them with `:unbindurl`.

I think the main limitation is not being able to accept key presses from browser chrome. Mozilla in principle was prepared to accept a patch that added a new API that did that [1] but people have repeatedly lost interest in developing it -

Perhaps extension code gets different rules. This code works in Firefox without needing interaction from the user: https://github.com/tridactyl/tridactyl/blob/5e8f94ff06bd5f14...

JS_ARG here is coming from the user - `:cp [search term]` would be typed interactively into our iframe which pages don't have access to. Tridactyl provides a `:shellescape` function for sanitising untrusted input but I don't think

Tridactyl can't use the bookmarks suggested above but you can do something similar with `:set searchurls.hn https://hn.algolia.com/?q=%s `.

Enough people complained + someone cared enough to help out, so we now offer a build without a new tab page [1]. Migration between the builds is much the same as the process documented here [2]. [1]: https://tridactyl.cmcaine.co.

Ah, I see - for clarity I'd rename them FASTEST_POLL_RATE -> SHORTEST_POLL_PERIOD or store them in Hz rather than seconds, so everything was 1/ in that little snippet. Thanks for clearing up my confusion :)

If fastest poll rate > slowest poll rate, I think you've got them the wrong way around (or is that the joke?).

I think if children took exams this year we'd find an even bigger divide between rich and poor. Private schools did vastly more teaching over lockdown than state schools [1]. It wouldn't be a good look given that the government is

My hunch is that the USA has low employment due to its terrible healthcare for poor people; I get the impression that people there get sick and then fall out of the labour market permanently. I think we may be consuming different media. The

I'm not sure this is that unintuitive once you know what unemployment means technically: the key aspect of the definition of unemployment is that to be unemployed you have to be actively searching for work. If more of your population i

Violentmonkey is very actively developed [1]. Greasemonkey isn't [2]. Tampermonkey is closed source so I view it with some suspicion. Otherwise they're all pretty much the same, as far as I know (I don't use them extensively)
