Quet is cool but I gave it up - too much config for a GUI browser .. I guess I am happy with vimium like plugins on Firefox ESR ..

nothing beats w3m though ..

Protip for any qutebrowser enjoyoors here. These are the greatest bindings I have:

config.bind('d', 'scroll-page 0 1')

config.bind('u', 'scroll-page 0 -1')

config.bind(',s', "jseval javascript:(function(){var elements=document.querySelectorAll(`*`);Array.from(elements).forEach(function(element){var style=getComputedStyle(element);if(style.position.startsWith(`fixed`)||style.position.startsWith(`sticky`)){element.style.cssText+=`position: absolute !important;`;}});})()")

It removes all floating elements from the page, which restores full page up/down. I may be the most ocd person on the planet when it comes to actually having a pagedown that actually means a full page down with no floating bs blocking text.

Sorry this is my greatest web pet peeve and I needed to let it out here for all you to suffer.

Oh snap. Adding this today.

Replying to this for later, thank you based God

Will definitely give it a shot .. again :-)

I made a few qutebrowser userscripts if you're into that kind of thing. A tool to mutate URLs before following them in just about any user configurable way, and a tool for bookmarking/tab/session management to organize links, are the two big ones. I can't live without the latter now.

I'm also working on a robust reader mode like userscript off and on that I'll get out eventually, and rolling around the concept of something to open links externally, such as opening video links in youtube-dlp or mpd or something.

You really can't beat this browser.

Does it fail to load a big percentage of pages for you?

I was using it some time ago and enjoying it a lot, but those "simply failed to render" pages started to get annoying.

Maybe things are better now, I see lots of code activity.

Can’t say i’ve ever hit that 🤔

Weird.

Well, that's good to know at least.

might be fun to look into
