Setting `accelKey` to 91 under Hyprland (Wayland) does not work #11

The README.md says:

... you can change the modifier key used in that bindings instead. Go to about:config page and set ui.key.accelKey to 91 (WinKey).

Unfortunately, this does not seem to work under Wayland. When I set ui.key.accelKey to 91 in Hyprland, keys such as WinKey+f (for searching) or WinKey+q (to quit Firefox) don't do anything, and neither C+f nor C+q work. I didn't find any workaround.

Other folks struggle with the same issue here https://www.reddit.com/r/swaywm/comments/m8amyy/using_win_key_as_accelkey_in_firefox/.

Ohh, thank you for reporting. It's sounds bad - personally I don't use wayland (it doesn't work very well on ubuntu), but seems like I'll be forced to move to it at some point. Thank you for warning, please let me know if you found some workaround for this issue!

You may want to try keyd as a workaround - https://github.com/rvaiya/keyd#application-specific-remapping-experimental . Also just found another alternative - https://github.com/k0kubun/xremap

Idea is to made C-n keybinding to generate C-S-M-n when firefox window is focused, and bind C-S-M-n to next-line in tridactyl config
