It's perfect for a port in progress.

Does what it suppose to. I'm another legacy Vimperator dropout looking for alternatives and very happy with this add-on so far. Let's see how we go with some heavy use.

The copyCurrentUrl command doesn't work. Please fix this issue.

this is what I am looking for ! highly recommend

I installed this as a desperate attempt to keep some Vimperator functionality as Mozilla is about to drop support for its "legacy" addons. It does a good job of replacing "follow hint" and basic page navigation but it cannot possibly compare to the full awesomeness of Vimperator. But as the developer writes: it is currently the only Vim-like addon compatible with future versions of firefox.

So far the same behavior as on Chrome.

one key misses : a key to restart firefox ! useful when you have some addons that needs to reload FF when activated or some bugs inside webpages

Good VimFX replacement

Thank you.

It even works in sites that VimFx could deal with! haha

PS: Firefox Nightly 57 - Arch Linux - Dwm

i like it

it's really sad the support for VimFX will stop and now I have to use this one. It's ok, although it needs some work. Here are some suggestions:

- in VimFx, i can re-map every key. I especially miss the re-mapping of the generated Huffmann Tree Link-Codes, since I don't use a QWERTY-Keyboard.
- VimFx had a clean and simple representation of the Link-Codes, this one has some weird shadowing going on. It's minor, but yeah.. I like my things clean and simple
- If the focus in on the URL-Navigation Bar, I can't use Esc to focus the website content
- Closing Tab (x) does only work if a website is open. When I open a tab, it goes to about:blank and i can't close it. However, it closes if I go to it manually. Kind of weird behaviour.

positive things:
- Link-Codes don't overlap, very useful on reddit
- the Navigation Bar showing Up on O is awesome!

It works great for me on FF DE 56.0b6 (64-bit), except for *Open in New Tab*, follow the link marked *Next* and some other advanced commands. All of which will probably be solved soon enough.

I loved the tab search feature (so I can have a clean interface (hidden tabs)) and sort of a replacement for Tab Groups for the time being in 57+.

I stopped trying to make my browser behave like my text editor years ago. Some people tries to compare Vimium-FF to Vimperator or something of that sort...

Learn the reasons behind Web Extensions: Firefox has become faster and more stable. The old model was unsustainable from a practical standpoint (start up times, memory leaks, user information leaks and so forth).

Adjust your rationale and be happy to still have a NORMAL mode to begin with. Firefox isn't a console text editor. I thank the developer and the Firefox Team for sharing their efforts toward a more pleasant web experience.

If you don't like it, try and make respectful arguments or fix it yourself for once.

Good alternative for magnificent "vimperator" which will soon have to die.
But Open multiple links in a new tab mode don't work.

Good! 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.

The 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.

Very 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!
