Ctrl F doesn't help you navigate links.

If you're in Gmail - all you have to do is type "inb" and push "enter" and it will take you to the inbox.

Ctrl F will only show you matches on the page that match "inb". It doesn't focus on links, and it doesn't help you easily navigate to that link.

There's a video demo that explains this here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y7wGtyeEoKQ

Ah gotcha, thanks for replying! I think I'm seeing how this ends up being useful in a lot of sites for navigation. That's a pretty "simple" change to normal searching that feels like it can do a lot, which is really cool. I'll give this a try at some point soon.

My pleasure. Let us know if you ever have any feedback. It's open source so you can always just drop an issue or suggestion there!

And for sure. It's super simple. :)
