- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 12794276, 8 years agoGood alternative for magnificent "vimperator" which will soon have to die.
But Open multiple links in a new tab mode don't work. - Rated 4 out of 5by ronjouch, 8 years agoGood! The only nit for my usage is, as remarked by another commenter, the inability to open links in new tab, which depends on enhancing a WebExtensions API: https://github.com/philc/vimium/issues/2510
Note this is VimFx-like (simple and unobtrusive), it does *NOT* has Vimperator's bells and whistles. - Rated 4 out of 5by Jesse Lin, 8 years agoThe addon has a lot of promise, but compatibility with Firefox 57+ WE still needs work. It's often buggy. Things like Shift-F open in new tab doesn't work. I hope as developers get things worked out with Mozilla and the new APIs many of these bugs will be resolved.
The main issue right now is the inability (as far as I can tell) to customize keybindings. - Rated 4 out of 5by bsnsk, 8 years agoVery promising extension!
With one question:
why is it disabled on addons.mozilla.org?
New: Not working on news.google.com!
Update: Sorry I did not describe this properly. It is actually shift-f that does not work, and it seems it is a problem of Firefox WE API. Thanks for your great extension!Developer response

It seems Firefox simply does not run extensions on this site. There's nothing we can do.

I cannot replicate that. It works fine for me. Perhaps you accidentally added an exclusion rule; check the options page.
