Yeah, screw everyone who makes use of Lynx, Netsurf or any of the extreme lightweight browsers still maintained today.

- rejschaap 9y agoLynx and NetSurf are more usable because they have been maintained. I'm sure 2017 Lynx is much more bloated than 1997 Lynx. Current day Lynx users will probably find 1997 Lynx unusable. All of this despite the fact that preventing bloat is probably one of the core goals of Lynx, which it obviously wasn't for Netscape.
- richthegeek 9y agoAll 7 of them!
- coroxout 9y agoI love lynx. I may be alone (or in a group of 7), however, judging by how often I get a 403 Forbidden error because a site is set up to reject anything with a user agent of lynx. Seems to be a default of many Wordpress setups. e.g. lynx slatestarcodex.com. Maybe I should just tweak the user agent, but hey, lynx pride. (edit: looks like it's the "libwww" part of the default lynx user agent which gets me blocked, not the "lynx" part. OK, I will edit that out. Ha!)
