I weirdly love staying in console in framebuffer. So much more pure and direct than running X and then running a terminal app inside X. I always found the framebuffer resolution pleasing to my eyes.
There's apparently an old version of firefox that was able to run in framebuffer at one point.
The links browser with graphics option apparently is a more current and robust option of getting a browser in framebuffer.
Super interested in hearing more about what you're using for a framebuffer browser!
- efreak 6y agoSome minimal/framebuffer/cli browser links from my bookmarks: - https://www.brow.sh https://www.brow.sh is a cli (not framebuffer) browser based on a Firefox plugin - https://www.uzbl.org https://www.uzbl.org is a set of python scripts implementing a browser - https://github.com/balenalabs/balena-wpe https://github.com/balenalabs/balena-wpe is WPEWebkit with framebuffer output - https://github.com/TOLDOTECHNIK/buildroot-webkit https://github.com/TOLDOTECHNIK/buildroot-webkit is another WPEWebkit, but I'm not sure if it's got framebuffer support or not
- h1x 6y agolinux console user here too :-). w3m works really great with framebuffer. imho it renders webpages in a cleanset way, compared to all other text browsers. plus it has default vim-like keybindings.
