Oddly enough, I decided earlier today to move back to Firefox as my go-to browser after using Chrome for about a year. Vimperator is just too good.

There has been a fork due to developer squabbles. The new one, with quite a few new features, is here: http://dactyl.sourceforge.net/pentadactyl/index

This explains the squabble: http://dactyl.sourceforge.net/pentadactyl/faq#faq-fork

I started using Pentadactyl when I switched to Firefox nightlies, and I must say I like it. I can't place my finger on anything in particular, but it feels... better. And faster.

Not a fan of Vimium? https://chrome.google.com/extensions/detail/dbepggeogbaibhgn...

I used Vimium while on Chrome, but Vimperator seems to more completely replace default browser behaviors. I also like the ability to add plugins and keep a .vimperatorrc.
