I've been using lynx for almost 3 decades. It was my primary browser for over a decade. The modern web has unfortunately left it behind but it still has utility. I have used it to test accessibility on sites. It is an excellent file manager. Just bookmark ~/ for navigation. It is useful for importing pages with -dump from the command line. It is arguably the best ever gopher client. It is also configurable beyond belief. Hopefully with a resurgence of interest in simplicity and text it will continue to be useful...
