Indeed. What would it be like if websites were designed to "look good" using a text based browser, like Lynx?
In the early days I used to use Lynx, and it was actually really good. It was always quite fast, easy to navigate around with the keyboard, able to zip through things like navigation menus quickly.
Didn't work to well with image maps! (A thing back in the day), but it was a nice experience.
- nologic01 3y agoThe endless dropdown menus people stuff websites with spoil the fun as there is no nice way to render that.
- qwerty456127 3y agoIf a menu is implemented in a semantically-correct markup a browser potentially can grab it and display in a sidebar.
- nologic01 3y agoA modern TUI should be able to handle that nicely but not sure if Lynx is still being actively developed.
