This would need community involvement: The troubleshooting page has a list of the various options for setting different acceleration keys to access default firefox keybindings.

Comment below with information on platform used, and which keycodes work for which key.

Linux - Gnome desktop.
Firefox 115.0.2

I moved the Firefox functions bound to Control over to Alt, allowing this extension to use Control by changing:

ui.key.accelKey = 18 (default 17)
ui.key.chromeAccess = 0 (default 4)

other than setting ui.key.accelKey & ui.key.chromeAccess I've also set devtools.editor.keymap to emacs and added to ~/.config/gtk-3.0/settings.ini:

[Settings]
....
gtk-key-theme-name = Emacs

This is the closest that I've got to having a keyboard driven experience in firefox. I've added vimium but disabled all keys except f to use the 'follow-link' similarly to the way nyxt works.

Extra: I had better luck configuring vimium to use emacs keybindings, I've documented it here
