Keyboard driven browsers & plugins - tbuck153 - 11-07-2013
Lately I've been using dwb for most of my browsing but there are a few times when I need dat firefox. I'd like to make the full switch for the sake of usuability and speed. I've tried the vimperator plugin and found it to break a few things and makes certain things function a little awkwardly not to mention I like the keybindings for dwb.
I'm wondering what y'all use? I know there are different plugins/browsers besides vimperator and dwb so I'm looking for some opinions :)

I have been using dwb for awhile now and I use firefox only for youtube (and other flash stuff) since I'm too lazy to setup flash for dwb.
I really like the interface and keybindings of dwb. :)

I use icecat for casual browsing because I like the plugins.
If I don't want to start the monster I simply use midori. Midori is fast lightweight, and has some extensions. Namely, an adblocker, a cookie manager, keyboard shortcuts, userstyles, etc..
I can use Mozilla's plugins. ex: flash.

The thread title is a liiiitle misleading, but, I use Xombrero, it's awesome.

Firefox with Vimperator is what floats my boat. I've tried luakit for a while, and I liked it. Except that it wasn't nearly stable enough to be my default browser, it just crashed too frequently, and without a session restore feature, that's just deadly.
Also, I'm a Gecko fanboy, I think it has the nicest rendering.

I'm another xombrero user.
Set it up to use the minimal interface and you won't use your mouse much.

Xombrero is what I like :)
RE: Keyboard driven browsers & plugins - berk - 11-07-2013
I use Firefox with VimFx.

I love Xombrero, but I mostly use Firefox with Vimperator.

FF and xxxterm(Yeah that's right, I don't say Xombrero".
RE: Keyboard driven browsers & plugins - zygotb - 12-07-2013
I can't install xombrero by typing xxxterm... :s
RE: Keyboard driven browsers & plugins - venam - 12-07-2013
I tried firefox-nightly today.
What can I say, it's bleeding edge and renders the images beautifully .

I like that thread layout :)
