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.

What were you using a headless browser for in the old day?
Wow, I had no idea this still existed! I'd also be interested to hear about people using it.
I'm also surprised, the development continue https://www.seamonkey-project.org. I feel as a Netscape navigator, but I'm not sure les web sites are compatible our century. I don't understand for what usage the development continue.
I never used it, but it's supposed to use a firefox base, and they were updating the base and gecko engine in every update as the say in the FAQ: https://wiki.mozilla.org/SeaMonkey/FAQ. Also the last version notes say the apply the firefox 96 fixes: https://www.seamonkey-project.org/news
Someone published a post about private oriented web browsers and how they're rated not long ago.
