Description

I came across this solution for toggling vimium with a shortcut, but was wondering if it could be possible to do this all with one shortcut by adding an option in the extension keybinds page. This is how I toggle Dark Reader on a site and it makes it much easier just having to press 1 keybind.

I feel like there are quite a few other useful things that could be added to this page for Vimium that others might find useful as well. Just wanted to share the idea.
