QuantumVim: Add basic vim commands to Firefox
QuantumVim is a Firefox add-on that enhances the browsing experience by adding basic vim commands to Firefox. It allows users to scroll, navigate tabs, reload pages, copy text, and more, using familiar vim commands. Please note that the add-on is in beta and may cause data corruption. We recommend using it with QuantumVim Extra for additional features.

Great to have it. Used vimperator before.
What seems better than in vimperator - indexing the links by letters.
What I miss: fully functional search (/) functionality, to use "n" / "N" to jump to next / previous hit.
