#lynxbrowser — Public Fediverse posts

Visiting interlisp.org with the Lynx web browser on Medley Interlisp. The main window is a VT100 terminal emulator running Lynx on the host operating system, Linux in this case. The smaller window next to the terminal is a VT100 keypad.

@skyfaller @Notactuallyfromphilly Lynx has entered the chat. :) hahaha! #lynx #lynxbrowser https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lynx_(web_browser)

#Google unterstützt den #lynxbrowser nicht mehr. Wenn ich dann den Useragent auf Firefox einstelle … dann will er Javascript !
Und außerdem hasse ich Selenium. Was ein dreckiger Dreck heute !! 😡 😡 🍺

booo. TIL you can no longer search Google from the Lynx browser. You could do the search by faking -useragent=FAKEUA but then you get to a page telling you to enable javascript.

Same end result for eww in emacs.

I saw a website host admin call #LynxBrowser a "gimmick" with "no practical use," and that admin can get fucked

that... is hardcore

@demiguise Here is a screenshor of my personal site's #Gopher version opened in #Lynx.

I love paywalls that can be defeated by the advanced technique of ... viewing the page with `links` or `lynx`.

Well it took some effort but now I can read Aftenposten from the terminal, with #Newsboat and #LynxBrowser.

Complications were:

1. Setting up Lynx with the right compile time and config file options for saving/loading login cookies and display of Norwegian characters.
2. Working out how to login in the first place (there is a bunch of Javascript, switching between sites and also 2FA)*.

* In the end I logged in with Vivaldi and then used an extension to export all the relevant cookies into a format that Lynx could use. It was just easier. 🤷

With the news of #Mozilla... Guess I'll be installing #lynxbrowser as its the last bastion of not fucking koolaid drinking fuckwadism.

@lonjil @landley maybe #Google as a Corporation doesn't beg for money whilst offering millions in paychecks?

Granted, they finance it with their #Adware aka. #Browser and selling off users' data being member if the #PRISM program which AFAIK is still operational and none of the #GAFAMs ever apologized for!

But maybe that's quite hyperbolic from my POV...

What is needed however is real competition that is cross-platform and just works.
Whether one uses #Gecko or #WebKit or whatever is kinda irrelevant.
( I can also use #LynxBrowser but we can all agree that none of the "#TechIlliterates" and "#Normies" would accept that level of feature regression nowadays!)

Google may have droppted their "#DontBeEvil" #Canary but at least Google's #FLOSS-licensed code is 'salvageable' in the worst-case scenario just like #OpenSolaris's & #OpenOffice's code got salvaged into the #illumos and #LibreOffice projects respectably when #Oracle was allowed to buy #Sun and went full "asshole mode" on #OpenSource projects (which is why I don't trust #OracleLinux and won't use it!)...

@KrissyKat And then said "#SmallMedia" wounder why noone's using their site...

If a site can't be viewed whilst using #LynxBrowser over @torproject on #Iridium, it's trash IMHO!
