Doesn't work on twitter at all
If you try sending a twit or for private messages, firenvim doesn't work at all.
I have actually found it does work on Twitter for me, but Twitter is doing some heavy mucking around with the content of inputs as they are edit: stripping characters, counting the result, substituting strings, etc. At least in Firefox I can use Firenvim for Tweet or DM input, but it's obnoxious that their other tooling responds so poorly to the content being changed without their on-key-press hooks being triggered.
I created a twitter account and twitter deactivated it ~10 minutes later because it "looked suspicious". I'm not going to waste more time on this so if you want to see this fixed you'll have to do it yourself :)
I think the only function you'll really have to look at is setElementContent - we "just" have to find the right incantation to make twitter understand that its input field has been updated.
I'm on firefox and it doesn't work. Do you have "continuous writting" enabled?
Tried with automatic syncing and it doesn't solve the issue. It seems to me like twitter takes input via javascript. This isn't the place to rant about such things but the modern web is truly awful.
Firenvim does work on legacy twitter but legacy twitter doesn't support DMs
I wonder if similar things happen with facebook. I find firenvim doesn't replace the input properly (it replaces the greyed out placeholder instead), and I can't send or edit the text after I've exited it.
I just disable firenvim on facebook currently.

@BlueDrink9 does it happen to you only on Facebook ? I got this issue on twitter and Reddit. edit : tested on facebook and it doesn't work too for me. on twitter and reddit the text is stacked with the default text.
