please dump any small browsers you know about, i’d like to try them out
the two i can think of are emacs’s eww and links (text mode). eww has been surprisingly useful, even without js support and extremely barebones html rendering
this is eww:
and this is links:
sadly, neither is able to login to lemmy, but I was able to login to mastodon through brutaldon
EDIT: ooh, i forgot about lynx (not links). also command-line. it managed to successfully login to lemmy:
offpunk is very different from all others I’ve tried. Very small.
Interesting! I’ll have to give that a shot sometime.

Try https://piefed.social on lynx, I tried pretty hard to make it usable in a text-mode browser.
There’s NetSurf, which is really lightweight for a graphical browser. There’s also Falkon and Otter Browser. They are more capable, but use more resources.
oh, cool! this is the best render of (old) lemmy so far
(p.s. why do we have to have porn on the homepage)
Best I can tell post blur, those posts are marked NSFW. You can choose to hide those posts. Assuming you’re signed in anyway, I’m not familiar enough with that interface to tell.
i was signed in, but it’s still kinda fucked up that showing nsfw posts is opt-out. also, they’re not even blurred in the old interface
i used dillo back when i only had old, used laptops
That’s not the Dillo webpage anymore. There is a whole history behind this but the link is now this https://dillo-browser.github.io/
The dev was at FOSDEM a few weeks ago too https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sFJp8JDg8Yg
I think Dillo is a great project. The whole thing fits on a diskette. Crazy.

i fucking hate the way domain ownership is handled right now
My wife uses that while I’m away 👍
cool. weird default colors, though
(for some reason, my instance won’t load, so I had to open lemmy.ml to take this snapshot)
i took it for a spin also since i hadn’t touched it in 20 years; the colors are indeed odd, as well as the scaling.

can you use that on linux?
With some effort I believe so
@bunitor My take:
you should report a bug to friendica bc your link didn’t reach me on lemmy
HTTP/1.1+ broke the convenience of raw socket browsing!
Have a look at Luakit (but please don’t try to configure it – this is absurd!)
Can add chawan to this list.
https://sr.ht/~bptato/chawan/Nice one!
I think I’m in love. That’s the best text mode rendering I’ve seen and I’ve tried them all.
Same for me. It’s frustrating to not see this one getting more popularity.
i haven’t tried it yet but https://offpunk.net/ looks interesting
Try old.lemmy.world or piefed, both I believe you can login with links2

Dillo?
W3m and elinks come to mind for text only.
Qutebrowser is small in market share but not in resource use.
How about Midori?
doesn’t midori use webkit?
Used Webkit until 2019, then bought out and now based on Firefox/Gecko.
I’m… not sure, I’d have to look that up. I only know that it was the only browser I found in my Linux distro repos that I was able to run on my Atom 2GB RAM netbook from 15 years ago.
IIRC the Windows version of Midori was the only browser that was light enough to watch Netflix on my ~2005 laptop.
They’re not browsers, but if you want lemmy in the terminal there’s Neon Modem Overdrive, which also handles Discourse forums and some other sites. For emacs there’s lem.el.
