> Bypassing the Mouse.. I use Vimium in the browser.

Vimium seems great for navigation.

Is there any way to get vim keybindings inside text boxes? (I looked at 'wasavi' chrome extension which hasn't been updated in 8 years [0] and the website's down [1])

You could use real vim in there with ghosttext, but it's not a native integration, you'd have a separate editor window

Another upside is (if your editor is properly setup to not lose data) that a page crash will never lose your precious long carefully crafted comment since it will persist in the editor


After a miserable 30 min tussling with python dependencies, finally got it working. But it's very cool! Thank you. This message sent from neovim! :)

I've heard of https://github.com/glacambre/firenvim but I've also heard you might run into issues clashing with browser keybinds
