I'm currently giving @Vivaldi a try, and I'm really liking it so far. A feature I especially like is the ability to turn off the UI, maximizing screen space and sending out #Links2 vibes.

Is there "a #mastodon" that works in text-only browsers like #links2 or #lynx ?

I think I'm closing in on some better #CLI tools.

#kitty - terminal emulator
#tmux - terminal multiplexer
#tmuxp - preconfigured tmux sessions
#mosh - ssh that reconnects if you switch networks
#newsboat - RSS feeds
#offpunk - gemini/gopher browser
#links2 - CLI web browser
#timg - CLI image viewer
#tailscale - for LAN access

Anyone else have some cool terminal apps they love?

Hey links2 users! I know there is the "-g" switch which will open up a GUI, but is there a way to click on an image link in the text interface and have it display in the terminal with timg?

I'm a bit off-color again this week, so let's just all share our personal #computer #basics.

About #asdf, #lisp, #emacs, #links2, #eww, #slime, #git, #mcclim etc, when I say I like to

The main problem of the #links2 browser is:

No Javascript Browser fingerprinting - experimental warfare in #links2

https://automa.triapul.cz/nojs-fingerprinting/

...

edit: just a side note, thanks to another fellow links2gangster, you can supply links2 with some completely arbitrary header, which will change the fingerprint: ie

links -g -http.extra-header "Accept: $RANDOM/$RANDOM" https://noscriptfingerprint.com/

But I suppose the best practice would be to rotate real (useless?) headers, as this will potentially make the browser stand out.

Thanks @smoon

Playing with the chawan browser and like... heck I could probably use this as a daily driver. Miles easier than #w3m and #links2 (especially with images and CSS) and I really like the man page viewer and it views Gopher!

explicit invitation to explain your reasoning in the replies

also, feel free to recommend other terminal-based web browsers if your favorite isn't listed

I cannot overstate my approval. This list is FIRE.
I actually have images disabled in w3m becuase the performance is kinda poor, but use xlinks a lot when I actually want images.

Honorable mention: Surf, when you really, really want a modern browser with a minimum of fluff.
Also, elinks seems to be in active development again, so it definitely deserves a place on the list. :)

Searching for online images with (not just) #links2 and other light web browsers.

Edit 2025-01-28: It is no longer possible to make searches through google without js. I'm leaving it in the guide for now (as a historical proof of enshittification)

For when you don't want to leave the terminal, but really want to look at cottage ideas on pinterest.
