Vim is actually highly ergonomic; you can do everything with a minimum of keystrokes without moving a hand away to a mouse or touchpad or oven the arrow keys. If that’s worth the time investment to learn it, is a highly subjective question. But I’d say it’s a lot easier than many people think.

uBlock Origin works fine with Firefox but it’s not better. Brave Shield is basically UBO rewritten in Rust and integrated directly in the browser code so it isn’t limited by the extension API and works more efficiently.

This! I never understand people who recommend Librewolf or other forks over Firefox just because some default settings are better.

I trust Vanadium but it’s not the best if you like your web ad-free.
