macOS natively supports AHK like functionality. Chrome and Electron apps have now started supporting the functionality. FF lacks behind in this regard and breaks my workflow, requiring me to go back to Safari for repetitive tasks.

It would be great if this could raised in front the PMs rather than providing me with add-ons.

I love FF and have contributed to the mozilla mission. But this is something that really really impacting not just mine but many people's workflow.

Thank you!

Hello Vineet,

If it wasn't for this sentence, I would have asked you to take a look at the Chosen Solution in this thread (although I totally understand why you'd rather not use an add-on .... ) :

https://support.mozilla.org/bm/questions/1268579

Now all I can do is ask you to take a look at these bug reports :
