For anyone interested, here are some web browsers that are very lightweight and don't bother with HTML at all: https://www.google.com/search?q=spiders&espv=2&biw=1439&bih=646&source=lnms&tbm=isch&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwjKiKXags7NAhXL44MKHaEgAxUQ_AUIBigB#tbm=isch&q=web+of+spiders https://www.google.com/search?q=spiders&espv=2&biw=1439&bih=...

NetSurf actually looks good.

  I use NetSurf on a Raspberry Pi B regularly. Does the job unless you need JS.

    There is limited JS support now too, which will likely get better over time.
    - rcarmo 10y ago
      Yeah, but it's been there for a little while now...

  NetSurf actually is good. Most of the web is more-or-less usable with it (usually “less” but it's definitely bearable). It's stupid fast too. My only gripe is stability issues and that it's not officially supported on Windows.

Also HV3, although it hasn't been updated recently: http://tkhtml.tcl.tk/hv3.html http://tkhtml.tcl.tk/hv3.html

I just love Dillo! On sites that require Javascript, it is useless, of course, and even moderately fancy CSS layouts look ... interesting in it. (OTOH, no Javascript means that it practically has a builtin adblocker.) But for sites where that is not a problem, it is incredibly fast, plus one can have dozens of tabs open, and it will rarely if ever use more than 100 MB of RAM. For browsing documentation, it usually works perfectly well.
