The only cases where I need the mouse are continuous interfaces (eg selecting an specific time in a video player) or restrictive and dumb webpage configurations (eg WhatsApp Web does noes not allow you to deselect the input box with the keyboard)

I use VimFX and I would recommend it. It takes 2 min to learn.

Not really. All browsers have extension to enable vim key binding, so you don't need a mouse to navigate the internet.

There is a plugin for Firefox called Vimperator. I use it a lot.
