I've tried Tridactyl, Vimium, Saka Keys, Vimium C, and Vim Vixen. Of these, I found Vimium C to work the best and have the least overhead. Tridactyl added a consistent overhead of around 100 milliseconds when loading page, while Vimium and Vimum C added only about 20 ms of overhead.

In terms of features, I think Tridactyl is the most feature complete, but I found Vimium C to be more enjoyable to use. For example, Vimium C seems to produce better hints (e.g. fewer cases of hints for something you can't click on), when compared to Tridactyl. I also prefer Vimium C's "Vomnibar" over the Tridactyl interface, especially with a bit of tweaking to the theme.

FWIW - mostly for other interested readers - in Tridactyl we made hints which might be useless grey recently. They correspond to JavaScript events and are sometimes the only way to click a button.

If you want Vimium-style behaviour where these elements are not hinted you can just do `:bind f hint -J`.

We also have a Vimium-style theme which you can access with `:colours shydactyl`. The theme could do with some polishing if anyone's interested.

I’m curious about your first paragraph but I don’t understand it, can you rephrase?

DOM elements which trigger JS event on click which are not identified by shortcut tools has always annoyed me, us much that I even tried to fix it myself so I’m very interested if tridactyl has

Disclaimer: I didn't write this code.

This runs at page load - https://github.com/tridactyl/tridactyl/blob/5e8f94ff06bd5f14.... If you keep pulling that thread you'll find we use it to populate an array of elements with interesting event listeners on them. We can then put hints on those elements. We simply fire fake mouse events on those elements if they are chosen.

The code could definitely be improved - a major annoyance to me is that the JavaScript hints ignore CSS selectors.
