    Anybody used other browsers like NetSurf/w3m/LadyBird/Dillo?

    Curious if anybody had any thoughts on them here that is more knowledgeable than me.

      Update: using w3m, this shit is for nerds lol but it’s cool, makes me feel like some kind of 1990’s hacker. Super impractical though unless you’re only visiting text based sites.

        Yeah… I really want something in-between w3m/etc. and Firefox, something that can display hexbear and isn’t running one of the three browser engines.

            Very interesting. But it doesn’t display hexbear decently (I’m not gonna require it to be “correct,” but I do want it to be decent—vibes based measurement)

              hexbear probably uses a ton of modern features, so yeah. maybe lemmy should have a lynx-compatible mode.

          brow.sh is what you’re looking for

            Browsh uses a headless version of Mozilla Firefox to fetch and parse web pages

            Doesn’t seem so.
