Don't forget the browser.

Vimium radically improved my entire web browsing experience. I can't live without it anymore.

Qutebrowser is worth a mention too. Google has sufficiently neutered extensions that I fell out of the flow pretty often with Vimium (e.g., can't work on any of the built-in pages or some other Google properties), but having chrome exist at a much lower level and building the UI around vim bindings has made it a 10x better experience for me in Qutebrowser.

There is `--extensions-chrome-urls` command-line flag (Chrome shows a scary warning, it works otherwise).

I used Vimium for years until I discovered SurfingKey, which offers way more features.

Great it also highlights searches, hated that Vimium didn't do that :-)

And with the Firenvim extension you can run a neovim instance in any text area! (Currently typing this inside neovim inside my browser)

The set of permissions needed is somewhat concerning

checkout tridactyl, it gives much better experience than vimium.

Love Vimium! Loved it so much I wanted it OS-wide. So I made Homerow, basically Vimium + Spotlight for the macOS user interface.
