Hey DT, genuine question
I heard you saying you didn't wanted tabs and bars appearing on your browser, why not pressing 'F11'?
I have brave and I like a lot its blocking capabilities, I basically can't browse without it anymore, so when you talked about not seeing bars and tabs, I remembered F11, tested it and noted that i doesn't show the tabs and bars when it goes fullscreen.
I use a extension called 'vimium' which adds dozens of vin-like new functionalities to the browser, can't browse without it either.
Great video

Redirect -F- (follow in new tab) to your favourite script by :bind F hint links spawn -hint-url- . I wrote a little document and url queuing script that waits with new opens until CPU drops below 15% usage and there is no i/o wait on the disk. So now I can -F- as many urls as I want in quick succession on my news site without overloading even the slowest machine. Instead of fighting dozens of new pages in parallel, they will be opened one by one when the computer is ready. :-)

Hey DT and viewers, if you like qutebrowser and want some of the same functionality within firefox.
Check out these addons:
- Tridactyl (Vim like functionality and navigation)
- Tree Style Tab (Tabs on left/right side in parent and child format that can be hidden with keybind in addons menu)
- I added binding to hide, collapse all, and expand all tabs.

Hey thanks DT, patreon, & QB dev/devs!
really like those global search options in config and the quickmarks, this browser is super productive and is setting a good example for what makes a fantastic browser. Especially love how the interface is very keyboard driven and tends to stay out of the way.

qutebrowser is pretty cool but I still rather stick to firefox for all my extensions. With TabCenter reborn, vim-vixen and some customCSS I have a quite minimal looking setup with vim/qute like keybinds. And I can still use all of my other firefox extensions like firenvim etc

qutebrowser is quite nice and someone is working at implementing the adblock from brave browser. The boring part is that you can't hint on javascripts elements. A cool browser that you can try is wyeb. You can go full keyboard with it. Even a hjkl pointer inside it.

I love qutebrowser. The only reason I have Firefox on my FreeBSD laptop because of Google believing Qutebrowser is insecure. Though, it's quite the opposite for my Windows and Linux partitions in my desktop - I have qutebrowser around because it's light.

this is amazing, I was instantlly converted. 5 minutes later hopes got shutters since there desn't seem to be a way to install browser extensions. I need my password manager extension. Is any one aware of a workaround for add ons with qute browser?

-DT Why don't you make a video on the Surfingkeys extension for Firefox and Chrome? It's a very good vim keys extension. Could be interesting for people interested in vim and using keyboard but who can't or don't want to switch browsers entirely.
reply

the reason why qutebrowser is so much faster than browsers like surf or vimb is that it doesn't use webkit by default like those do. You can compile it with webkit but by default it uses qtwebengine which is what chromium is built on
