Hmm. Apparently there's some kind of federation issue. Good to know it works, though!

Did you get something back?

Lol, I'm already up and running. It's pretty good, and I can actually use my mouse with it in bash. Protip, it seems very important to use the right window size. It's good enough to do a lot of normal browsing, but openstreetmap understandably had broken controls. The only local issue is that I can't see what I'm entering into the URL bar.

It's also designed to run distributed, so you can use shitty bandwidth between a rendering machine and the display machine. I should try fitting it into a radio channel or phone connection or something, haha. I also wonder if it could be adapted to work with Tor Browser.

Really? Is it open source, or are we just going by reputation of the developers?

I actually don't know much about the kernel they use, I was really just trying to emphasise the level of trust you put in your OS.

Nah, it's the Middle East. "America" is reason enough to be embarrassed about it.

At this point, it feels more likely than not the Middle East is going to explode.

So TL;DR it has no teeth really.

Absolute chad.

(Mandatory disclaimer that I actually think the anti-GUI jerk goes too far)

I'm absolutely fascinated if somebody can point me to that.

How well did it render most sites, compared to the other CLI browsers?

[–] CanadaPlus@futurology.today 5 points 2 years ago

Nice! I knew it had to be a thing.

Did you do much browsing? Lynx is a thing, but it can't do JavaScript.

Come to think of it, is there a CLI Lemmy client?

Blasphemy! And also I'm poor, although I guess if I really wanted to run spyware as my kernel I could pirate it.

But yeah, I'm getting the sense those are the two games in town, Linux-wise.
