But it turns out the desktop has its own zoom feature, and it does work with Firefox (ie. when I click in the zoomed view it does the right thing). So this helps, thanks! | |

| Jan 1 at 2:48 | comment | added | q.undertow | Excellent question! Yes, I do use MK - I would probably kill myself if they didn't exist :( . But: 1. even with MK, it is a terrible chore to position the pointer over a link - it's just too small a target. and 2. MK go away with Wayland - I'm lucky I'm on a distro / desktop that hasn't switched yet. | |

| Dec 31, 2023 at 7:23 | comment | added | harrymc | I hoped that it will pick up the link that you selected using your method. Sorry that this didn't work for you. I'll see if I can find something else. | |
| Dec 31, 2023 at 3:19 | comment | added | q.undertow | thanks, sadly the operative words are "Hover cursor" and "link under cursor". Not what I'm after. It's actually really depressing how people reflexively suggest purported solutions involving the mouse, even though my very first sentence explains how that is unsuitable. | |
