Power user Popogami Po chooses Vivaldi for keyboard-only browsing and more.

Team_Vivaldi

In our latest user story, we meet a heavy Vivaldi user from Japan to find out why they love the browser and how they use it.

I now use a lot of them to browse without having to leave the keyboard.

A like-minded user, I approve

That was one of the first things that made me fall in with Vivaldi - that we can customise almost every single hotkey

I'd also love to hear from Popogami what they use to browse webpages without a mouse - Vivaldi's Spatial Navigation or maybe an extension to recommend?

I tweak the color scheme to suit my preference

That colour scheme looks brilliant - please share it on Vivaldi Themes!

Excellent article, very good example of an intelligent use of Vivaldi.

I missed that in blog article, too.

But i hate IT mice, too (my poor old hands!), and use Spatial Navigation.
@Popogami_Po , I wonder if you use Spatial Navigation or how do you select elements and links on web pages?

I see no reason to limit myself to using just the keyboard. Alt+F, X is fine for exiting the browser, but a quick flick of the mouse to go back/forward, scroll to top/bottom is easier for me than using keyboard shortcuts: z,x, 1,2, Home, End, or whatever.

Popogami Po @ppgm:

To enhance your keyboard-only browsing to the sky I recommend you two tools:

1.- AutoHotkey:

https://www.autohotkey.com

2.- The extension "AutoControl: Keyboard shortcut, Mouse gesture":

@barbudo2005:
Thanks recommend tools! I always find no-mouse-tool!

Yes! I use AutoHotKey too!
I map simple mouse control, for example left and right click, scroll, and move..!

I didn't know AutoControl! I'll Check it! Thank you!

Nice blog post.
Can you show other type of customization of Vivaldi?

I’ve used another mod from the Forum to add a Panel that displays a session list from the side panel.

It always makes me glad to see people using a mod to really make the software their own. Every piece of technology should be hackable and extensible like this.
