- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 14260596, 6 years agoIt used to be pretty useless, but just in a few months it's become a quite decent replacement for vimperator, which makes me quite happy. :) I need more of this

- Rated 5 out of 5by dotancohen, 6 years agoTridactyl make the web usable. I can read, browse, navigate, search, and create content in keystrokes. I don't care that Tridactyl is faster, but it is far more comfortable than clicking around with a mouse. I won't even consider another browser that does not have keyboard navigation.
- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 14243953, 6 years agoThe only firefox addon, that gives me the full vim feel i like so much. <3
- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 14237567, 6 years agoLove it! Pentadactyl can't be topped, but this is the closest I've seen! Quick, easy, looks good.
Some notes:
- Use :installnative to be able to save your configs to disk
- ^ also can be used to change how firefox looks, I removed the address bar
- It used to be pretty slow when searching through your history, now there's no lag - Rated 5 out of 5by William Raiford, 6 years agoComing from Vimperator, and then VimFX - I love this addon. Vim überalles! I really hope the developer reconsiders doing a visual mode, which is extremely useful for keyboard-oriented copy/paste! Still giving it 5 stars though...fantastic product keeps getting better. Just found out about `gF`...that's AWESOME!
- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 14226124, 6 years agoThe reason why I'm currently switching to Firefox!
- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 13577668, 6 years agoIt is like VIM but on a Web Browser. Forgot the mouse and use only the keyboard. This plugin also offer custom functionalities to speed up browsing the web. Absolutely recommended!

- Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 14084081, 6 years agoThis has been a great replacement for vimperator for me. The only feature I miss right now is local marks.

- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 14119420, 7 years agoHave been avoiding to upgrade from Firefox ESR because Vimperator no longer works in newer Firefox versions. Finally tried the latest Firefox with this extension today, and wow. It isn't quite there yet but pretty dang close to what I need. Vimperator was the only reason I used Firefox in the first place, and this extension is the only reason I'd use post-ESR Firefox. Thanks for making Firefox usable again!

- Rated 5 out of 5by Memas, 7 years agoI really appreciate your work! In fact, I just switched from firefox esr 52 to quantum 60 and I was in a loss when I found vimperator is no longer supported in newest versions of firefox. Finally I got a satisfactory alternative from your kind work. Thanks a lot! This is the reason why I use firefox (Vimium is just not that costomized!). Pitifully I do not have a valid Paypal account (not properlly supported in China), but please accept my simcere gratitute to you!
- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 11278032, 7 years agoI used to help maintain Vimperator which has now stopped development due to Firefox addon API deprecation. Tridactyl however has proven to be a worthy successor! The user experience is great, and long time users of similar addons such as Pentadactyl should feel at home. Due to the nature of changes in WebExtensions and its earlier and current limitations I'm really excited to see it come this far!
Importantly, the project also has great development momentum with lots of features being added or bugs being fixed all the time. This is truly a breath of fresh air in the enthusiast community of power users looking to vimify or otherwise enhance their browser experience, which for some time has been stale with the foreshadowing of the deprecation of XUL/XPCOM and ultimately the need to port or discard lots and lots of old code.
Remember to check out #tridactyl on the many platforms its available, including the ever present Freenode. More information can be found in the README on their GitHub project. - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 14084249, 7 years ago
