My view:

Use vim shortcuts in all the programs, so you never have to use the mouse or learn new keyboard shortcuts.

For Firefox something like Vimium works well.

Qutebrowser is one of my dearest loves. I wish every browser was Qutebrowser. <3

When I open a text editor, I want to type text. Vim won’t let me do that without explicitly telling it that I want to.

Most of the time you are using a browser, I can almost guarantee you’re not typing text. Likewise, but to a lesser extent, I bet most of your editor time is spent reading and doing minor tweaks instead of pure insert mode.

Not in my case.
