Just to add my 2c on this; I browse with a sandboxed text-only Links or W3M for 99% of all web interactions. I've got into Qubes, and for those 1% of times they hold a gun to my head I can create a single use Firefox routed through Tor. The experience of text-only is that I click on loads of links! It's very liberating. Highly recommend it for sites like HN that are high on content and low on silly eye-candy. I just never see the belly-dancing models selling me stuff, or the entire page bugging-out like I did a whole bag of speed. Maybe I'm missing out! The links load instantly in a new tab or they don't load at all. I set the timeout to 12 seconds. About half the time the page doesn't load at all because it wants to run javascript or some nonsense. I just move on without thinking about it. Honestly it's really changed my psychology. Instead of getting annoyed that half the web is user-hostile, I just take the attitude that it's great that 50% of things do still load and contain real information like its 1990! Because text-only browsing is so fast and effortless it's no overhead. The "shit web" just slides past like water off a ducks back. btw our cybershow [0] is designed to quite Suckless [1], minimalist standards.
