Tridactyl extension does not work

I would also love to see Tridactyl working. (Or even better, native option for vim style keys and modes.)

MacBook Pro (Retina, 15", mid 2014) running macOS 11.6.5 and Orion version 0.99.113.2-beta (WebKit 613.1.12)
Mac mini (M1, 2020) running macOS 12.3.1 and Orion version 0.99.113.2-beta (WebKit 613.1.12)

Yep. Pretty much none of Tridactyl's functionality works with Orion at the moment, which is a shame. Surfingkeys works moderately better, and is as/almost as powerful, though.

I don't want to sound rude, but why was the status changed to 'done'? I'm using the latest Orion version, and Tridactyl still does not work.

purgatori Because we made a change and it worked in our testing. If it doesn't work for you please provide steps to reproduce.

Vlad Using Orion 0.99.120.1-beta & Tridactyl 1.22.1:

Pressing 'f' does bring up link hints, as expected, but they are not styled correctly. They are simply black text on a transparent background, which makes them very hard to see.

Pressing 't' or 'b', etc. to invoke functions such as 'open new tab' or 'show bookmarks' invokes the 'ex' command line instead of invoking those functions.

Can vouch that Tridactyl doesn't seem to do anything in the current version of Orion,

Hi,

Apple macOS Ventura 13.4 (22F66)
Orion RC 0.99.133.2.1-rc (WebKit 619.1.11.111.2)

Same story - Tridactyl https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/tridactyl-vim/ can be installed successfully and enabled in Orion. However, it looks like it is not operational.

When Tridactyl is installed pressing f on the keyboard should add two-character labels next to each link:

However, this does not happen with Tridactyl installed inside Orion.

Anyway, it would be great to have a built in vim key bindings support in Orion RC. This will help Orion standout among other Webkit-based browsers.

Best regards,
Yuriy

This extension is the first and primary extension (along with Ublock Origin) which I install on Firefox whenever I move to a new computer. The ability to overlay the DOM is probably one of those very "nice to have" features that, if we had it in a webkit based browser would be a game changer. I love Orion but Trydactyl is the only reason why I still use Firefox for a lot of things.
