We're talking about https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/tridactyl-vim...?

One example: it disables the default Ctrl-F search function but its own search function is subpar (no match counts/hlsearch, e.g.) and often clashes with website's built-in search (on Github, e.g.).

It doesn't work on the default newtab either, and changing the default newtab somehow makes opening a new tab slower (that's FF's fault, I guess)…

You can type /phrase and then press ctrl-F for the full search bar. A more annoying problem is that some websites capture / presses, making it harder to initiate a page search. Then you have to shift-esc ctrl-f to search.

THANK YOU! I never knew those little quality of life hacks. I am going to beat them into my brain so I never forget them, and I suspect each time I use them I will remember the nice strange from HN who made it possible. <3
