"Toggle Saka" via shortcut not working #299

Open extralight opened 4 years ago

extralight commented 4 years ago

Trying to enable/disable saka by pressing l doesn't work.

I then used Add Binding to create alternate shortcuts to toggle saka. Even the new keys didn't work. (Not a new issue. Even an year back it was like this.)

Everything else is ok.

This was done on a fresh profile with no extensions or any changes made anywhere. saka key v1.26.3 Firefox 77.0 (stable) Debian 11 (bullseye, sid)

It seems this issue is a duplicate of #154.

Ok, it looks as if the programmers (lusakasa) are using that key 'l' in their other extension 'Saka' which manages tabs. Since this extension is far more popular could they please move this key for use with 'Saka keys' or atleast 'enable' it via some other key so that 'saka keys' can be quickly switched on and off.

For me saka keys conflicts with youtube and other youtube extensions like speed control, so quick enable/disable is important. I have even been thinking of moving to vim keys which I don't know since i am an emacs user, and my brain has got so used to the saka key bindings.

Since this issue has been running from 2017, could the programmers please prioritize this?

Any info from others would also be helpful.

I don't know if you noticed that but there are many signs that (active) development of Saka Key stopped about two years ago. I was a happy user of this nice extension and still watch this repo, but the lack of proper support made me switch to another extension – in my case, it's Tridactyl. I am also an Emacs user but used Vim before, so the switch was not too hard for me.

Most of keyboard-oriented extensions allow you to rebind keys. Of course, it takes some time but isn't that hard.
