As a Vim enthusiast, I always wanted to replicate my daily workflow based on keymappings and completely avoid using the mouse. I missed the functionality offered by tools like ranger or lf in Vifm, but I didn't want to learn a whole new set of keyboard shortcuts. I watched several YouTube videos trying to recreate this setup, but none quite hit the mark. The project that inspired this work didn't fully meet its intended functionality.

Project mention: Qutebrowser: A keyboard-driven, Vim-like browser | news.ycombinator.com | 2024-12-08

Happens a few times a year, unfortunately there isn't much I can do other than submitting a report to Microsoft and hoping they'll react ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
