• How to mock builtin function?

  Nearly everything on reddit uses reddit-flavored markdown. Backticks for Inline code, as you discovered, but indent code blocks with four spaces. I Use a browser extension so that I can edit all my comments in Vim, so manipulating this markup, especially Code blocks, is easy. Source: about 3 years ago

• How to remap built-in keybindings like `C-n` and `C-w`?

  I use tridactyl but the limitation of firefox API prevents addon to even change the built-in shortcuts: https://github.com/tridactyl/tridactyl/issues/1428. Source: about 3 years ago

• Nyxt: The Hacker's Browser

  There are always going to be limitations to extension-based approaches but Firefox with tridactyl is most of the way there capability-wise IMO (https://github.com/tridactyl/tridactyl). I use that plus tree-style tabs and find it excellent. There's always some extensibility limitations that break the integration though, like extensions getting disabled on mozilla... - Source: Hacker News / about 3 years ago

• Search the Screen using hints

  I have been using flow launcher for 2 years and last month I tried Fluent Search where it had the option of searching screen using hints [ like vimium and Tridactyl but for every screen]. I have dug deep into the settings and plugins of FL but didn't find anything similar, Fluent also has search the current process, which I guess would be enough for me. So is there something like this in FL? Thanks in advance! Source: over 3 years ago

• My first build - TPS42, running miryoku

  My paintor has 42 keys, but the outer column became vestigial when I started using miryoku. Also, the mouse emulation wasn't much fun to use compared to a trackpoint. I'm on a mac, so even with browser extensions like Tridactyl, OS features require me to be using a mouse quite a bit. Source: over 3 years ago

• Happy 9th birthday, qutebrowser!

  It initially was focused on dwb "refugees", and much of that is still visible today: The look of the UI, almost all keybindings, the split between book- and quickmarks (probably a bad idea), the idea of having external userscripts (probably a bad name), etc. etc. In other areas, qutebrowser most likely had a pioneering role: As far as I know, it was the first vim-like browser to introduce a more shell-like command...

• I got fired yesterday for using vim

  It took me years to learn vim, I did it because it gives me speed, less mental overhead, it opens and closes rapidly and things that I apply in vim can be applied elsewhere, I use Tridactyl to browse for example. Source: almost 4 years ago

• Tell me your experience about multi monitor setup in Linux!

  Tridactyl is a lot better for a vim-like browser. Vimium just has keybindings for browsing, but it doesn't give you the ability to press colon and type commands there, like with qutebrowser. Source: about 4 years ago
