I left long ago for Vivaldi. Glad I was gone for the ads in the search bar by default. That kind of behavior, to me, shows a change in priorities away from the user.

In Vivaldi you can set nicknames for bookmarks. So you could type

“Ctrl+L” to select the address bar

then

“rv” or “vid” or whatever you want, to take you to the bookmarked r/videos page, which you can also leave out of the bookmarks bar if you don’t want the clutter

I do this all the time now, since most websites I visit are my frequently visited (probably true for everyone). Optimize life’s most used code paths my friend and come on over to Vivaldi. This is not a paid ad lol.



Firefox supports bookmark keywords too, though the UI isn't optimised for that. Vivaldi is the next in line for me if Firefox stays on course.
