@martinschlegel @Extelec Pretty much any version of #NetBSD should run on a #ThinkPad T23 out of the box, and #pkgsrc will include the ~latest #firefox. I tested it on a ThinkPad T41, which is only two years more recent than the T23 - youtu.be/jYS4TcgxMxU

Now, whether you can do anything *useful* in modern Firefox on a 1GB 32 bit machine... not so much

#PaleMoon or #ArcticFox are pretty capable browsers which run well on smaller machines - and #Dillo will *scream* on that spec hardware 😛

@ddlyh@topspicy.social @dillo@fosstodon.org

Not sure what happened to dillo's mention, either.

The missing alt text may be a flaw with snac, its web interface, and/or dillo's lack of JS, I don't know.

It got the job done. 😂

But most of the time, I just use @tut@fosstodon.org on my #OpenBSD box, although the snac web interface works pretty well in w3m as well.

The only reason I don't use #dillo more, and really my only "criticism" as it were would be the lack of vi/less-like keyboard navigation features.

If I could navigate my way around it like w3m, X?links, luakit, or even the fox+Vimium C, that would be AMAZING

So I feel like I finally made a hands-on contribution to a project:

gitlab.archlinux.org/archlinux

I found out that in Arch Linux can't browse IPv6 sites as the support is not explicitly compiled in. Rather than discussing it here, I decided to go straight to the maintainer's repo with the fix.

I feel happy, even if a little silly for some reason. I never did a technical commentary like this before, and if it gets merged it's my first real contribution to a project!

@4bz i liked #ploum's essay about the two webs:
ploum.net/2023-08-01-splitting

i think it makes sense to resort tl a shitty web browser for the shitty JS-powered capitalist web; and whenever possible use #ytdlp or #tubular for hostile sites like #youtube;

and then use other web browsers (or rss readers, or ...) for the enjoyable web. those web browsers might not even need JS. these include #offpunk, #lynx, #netsurf, #dillo, #links, #edbrowse, #librera, #eww.

#TinyCore #Linux is stunning. Here it is running successfully on a 1999 Sony VAIO with a single 333Mhz Celeron processor and 128Mb RAM.

Getting it booted was no effort; burn a CDROM and boot from it. Setting up wireless networking using an ancient D-Link branded WiFi USB dongle was a different story, but I got it working in the end.

That's the #Dillo browser running in the foreground!
