Hey roosterburton,

Would you be able to make a LingQ extension to easily customize keyboard/mouse-button hotkeys for this site, easy enough to use for non-scripters?

I second this, if there could be a way to modify keyboard shortcuts that would be unreal!

This is unbelievable, I just tested it and have all my custom binds set… it works so well! You made my week @roosterburton, honestly this makes such a difference.

Just using it now, working exactly as I always wanted, now I can finally use LingQ reader one-handed. Thanks, your work should get integrated onto the core site.
