- sylware 4y agoYep. I am trying to do something, but I realized that it means dealing with ppl which are severely brain-washed, or 101 scammers (web planned obsolescence). It won't happen peacefully, my guess is it requires strong regulation, at least for critical sites (like those from the administration). One of the main issues is the corpo(state?)-sponsored hackers paid to sabotage the alternatives.
- t-3 4y agoI spent a few months earlier in the year entirely in the console using links as my browser, and it worked just as well, and in some ways better than firefox with js disabled (ie. lots of sites that give a blank page or cookie popups just work). My main issues that led to returning to X were with the OpenBSD console having some annoyances WRT UTF-8 in tmux and not being able to figure out how to use a smaller/higher resolution font.
