I, unfortunately, have to use GitHub at $DAYJOB and this is me. I navigate most of the webpage via the URL bar now.

Basically, let's say I'm working on a repo github.com/tomato/sauce/ and want to navigate to the Releases page.

Via the webpage:

  1. Type github.com into the URL bar.
  2. Don't find tomato/sauce/ in the list of recent repos, even though it's the only repo I work on.
  3. Click on some other repo that's at least in the tomato/ org.
  4. Navigate up to the tomato/ org.
  5. Find the sauce/ repo in the list.
  6. Traverse half the fucking screen to hit the "Releases" heading in the middle of the About-section.

Via the Firefox URL bar:

  1. Type gi→t→s→r→.
  2. Hit Enter.

I admit, it's hard to compete with the latter, but I wouldn't know how to navigate that way, if the former wasn't so terrible.

This is me, but with my work's Azure DevOps. Nice to meet a fellow auto-complete bro.

Hopefully somebody else $DAYJOBs at GitHub and will see this.
