Linux

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

small browsers (lemmy.eco.br)

please dump any small browsers you know about, i'd like to try them out

the two i can think of are emacs's eww and links (text mode). eww has been surprisingly useful, even without js support and extremely barebones html rendering

this is eww:

emacs window with eww displaying linux@l.ml's header

and this is links:

terminal window with links displaying linux@l.ml's header

sadly, neither is able to login to lemmy, but I was able to login to mastodon through brutaldon

EDIT: ooh, i forgot about lynx (not links). also command-line. it managed to successfully login to lemmy:

That's not the Dillo webpage anymore. There is a whole history behind this but the link is now this https://dillo-browser.github.io/

The dev was at FOSDEM a few weeks ago too https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sFJp8JDg8Yg

I think Dillo is a great project. The whole thing fits on a diskette. Crazy.

dillo displaying this post and the comment i'm replying to

(for some reason, my instance won't load, so I had to open lemmy.ml to take this snapshot)

i took it for a spin also since i hadn't touched it in 20 years; the colors are indeed odd, as well as the scaling.
