EDIT: Thanks for the quick reply! I guess I was a bit unclear with what I meant. I wasn't referring to the shortcuts for commands (I'm actually very happy with those) but the little hint tags that show up when pressing f/F. My suggestion here would be to prioritize simple combinations (double keys, nearby keys) based on a selected keyboard layout (e.g. qq, kk, qw, kl, ...) instead of just incrementally exhausting the 'hintchars' pool.

Developer response
posted 7 years agoWe just use the same binds as Vimperator because the authors are lazy and don't want to have to relearn anything. If you have anything that you particularly dislike, feel free to file an issue: https://github.com/cmcaine/tridactyl/issues.
You almost rebind anything you want, though, with `bind [key sequence] [command]`. If you just do `bind [key sequence]` you'll find out what that command that sequence is bound to, and `viewconfig nmaps` will show you all of the binds you have.
