    Firefox (and thus also the forks) is missing a couple features since the rewrite 5 years ago. The biggest one for me is lack of keyboard shortcuts.

    Also it becomes painfully slow on some more complex websites and dark reader is not nearly as good as the dark mode in Vivaldi.

    Because of that I only use FF on websites that don’t work on Vivaldi.

          How are you using a keyboard in a browser on Android? I didn’t use keyboard since BlackBerry KEY.

              You’re actually using one? I saw similar project (or this one) some time ago. I also found BB10 keyboards modified to just act as USB keyboard and even tried to buy one but the supply was very limited and they would be gone in a matter of hours. And I have zero experience with JLCPCBs. And all phones are so big now that attaching extra keyboard to them wouldn’t be that practical. I would kill for a modern N900 type phone.

                Yeah, I developed that, and I’m daily-driving it since 2021. Wouldn’t want to go without one.

                JLCPCB is really nice.

                The phone does get long, but I got used to it quite quickly.

                  Where did you get the keyboard? I had a Q10 (and Priv, and Key) but I’m an idiot and I always throw the phones away weeks before discovering their parts may still be useful.

                  Are you able to use it with a case?

              Sounds like all you gotta do is wait then, since your hyper-niche scenario will become a lot less niche once that happens.
