Saka Key seems to be using different keybindings than VimFx, Vimium, Vimperator, etc. For example, Saka Key uses `n` to open a new tab[1] whereas others use `t` to open a new tab. I am more used to the latter. So I decided to ignore this and try Vimium instead.

Vimium is good but one thing about Vimium annoys and I don't know a good workaround for it. If I create a new tab, the focus goes to address bar and then there is no convenient way to escape back to normal mode. I know this is a restriction due to the new webextensions. Anyone got any ideas to overcome this limitation?

Just wanted to mention, one of the unique features of Saka Key is that it lets you define keybinding profiles that are easy to switch between, and there are multiple profiles built in, including one that mimics Vimium.

The address bar autofocusing is annoying. Best advice I have is to replace your new tab page with a URL or a custom new tab extension.

Also, I devised the default keybindings with three goals in mind.

1. Common keys should be easy to reach.

2. Users unintentionally trigger dangerous commands (like close the current tab). To prevent this, I bind dangerous commands to 2 key sequences.

3. Users not being able to remember keybindings. To help users remember, I try to associate commands with an intuitive key, e.g. Zooming is mapped to z.
