Piotr Kowalski (ID: 000000456127052b) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 09/22/2022 The only thing that makes me sad is that I should find it and use this extension long time ago ;-) Works stable and awesome. :colortheme=matrix :set fs (full screen) :set nofs (no full screen)

Grady Fort (ID: 00000009fa3530e4) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 04/02/2022 I love Wasavi! Thank you to the developers! I used to get annoyed with slow text editing in chrome to the point that I would open a blank Vs Code file just to have my vim key bindings. Now I can edit directly inside text boxes! What a time saver!
