After using Chrome for a decade and switching back to Firefox, one feature I missed was the ability to right-click and Go to [url] directly, for any selected text that vaguely resembles a URL.

I made Goto foo to approximately replicate Chrome’s behavior in Firefox, but it would be nice if no extension were necessary.

    Maybe it is more visible that way, but the same can be done clicking on open link or open in private window.

      Firefox’s ‘Open Link’ feature is quite limited compared to Chrome. For example, try navigating to lemmy.ml using the “Firefox@lemmy.ml” link in the sidebar.

      Even in cases where it works, it doesn’t preview the link target in the context menu.
