## Description

Mouseless is a powerful Firefox plugin designed for a mouseless future, enabling users to navigate the browser efficiently using only keyboard shortcuts.

Key features include displaying shortcut "blobs" on links, opening links or tabs with Enter keys, copying URLs with Ctrl+Enter, seamless tab navigation with j/k and ; keys, fast and normal scrolling, and history navigation using Ctrl+j and Ctrl+;. This extension is perfect for users seeking efficient, keyboard-centric web browsing in Firefox.
