Doesn't work with desktop computers sadly.

Why do you believe it will take 10 years?

> Unfortunately keynav doesn't seem to be working all that well in Ubuntu 20.20, I am a bit interested in fixing this somehow.
I assume you mean Ubuntu 20.10? I tried it and it works fine for me in an Ubuntu 20.10 VM. Are you using Wayland perhaps?
> I do have some further ideas on how to do this and some practical use cases as well.
Feel free to contact me if you want to discuss it, could be a fun project. My contact info is on https://lesderid.net.

> Ah it seems that there is this program called keynav.
Yep, I wrote this as a direct clone of the original keynav, so I can use the same config file on both operating systems.
> For browsers I love to use these pentadactyl/vimium/... extensions. Would there be anything similar for reguar desktop applications. I get that it would be a huge effort to support all the different toolkits though.
You can bind arbitrary keys to control the grid, and the default bindings are vim-like, but it only goes down to the window level. Interesting idea though, probably doable with LD_PRELOAD stuff.

keynavish (and the original keynav) use a different cursor movement system, as they work with a grid that you can recursively split/move to be centered around the target position, but yes, the end result is more or less the same as the qmk feature.
One advantage you get with this method is that you can e.g. bind a key that sets the grid size and position to match the active window, which you obviously can't do in keyboard firmware (example: https://lesderid.net/keynavish-demo.webm).

AFAIK, Switzerland and Belgium are very different.
Belgium is culturally very divided: the two major cultures (Dutch-speaking and French-speaking) are hardly mixed, especially in recent times, with the exception of Brussels.
From conversations with a Swiss friend, I gather that the cultures in Switzerland are much more mixed in daily life.

Would you mind sharing this?

In fact I believe I do. I just checked it again, and they have exactly the same (or higher) prices as major competitors (MEGA, Dropbox, OneDrive, Backblaze).

I pay for additional Google Drive storage.

As a former power user of Inbox, Gmail.
It has a ton of icons and labels and whatnot that for me provide only clutter. They never completely integrated the 'tasks' or 'notes' or whatever they used to call it either. It's also much slower to load.
