@dillo One of my go-to comparisons of Dillo vs the chonky-boi browsers was the experience of opening a site¹ with reviews of gazillions of CLI applications/games in Dillo. I did "open in new tab" on 100+ pages to read through a whole bunch of reviews (quite a pleasant reading experience, BTW).

Despite Dillo having 100+ tabs open, top(1) & ps(1) reported that it was using less RAM (I think it was ~50MB) than a single instance of Firefox of Chromium opened to a blank start-page doing nothing.

So I'm regularly thankful that Dillo is so mindful of its resource usage. ☺
