Gosh this site is really useful. I was starting to give up on lynx for quick info but this site alone might revive it ;)
irssi and lynx feels so homely. Like a good old BBS.
Why don't we as the technical community simply refuse to engage with broken technologies?
For example a forums just for i.e FreeBSD / Linux nerds really doesn't need to be fancy. To be far we could even actively block full featured browsers as a statement. Make it only work with i.e Lynx, links, netsurf, dillo and just make the font appear transparent of use a Javascript blocking div on anything else.
The web is only going to get worse, perhaps we should stop playing ball? It would only take a number to reach critical mass and we could almost divide the internet. Especially since so many of use really do think browsers suck.
Anyone interested on working on a lynx-only forum with me?
Then we can scale it up to Facebook / GitLab for the next project ;)
