Can we carve out a part of the internet please where we go back to super basic html pages that are a mix of self hosted hobby blogs and university research sites? It was good then. Everything's gotten so noisy, and busy, and shit.
The browser you're looking for is literally called Links.
Links is just a browser, it doesn't fix the websites themselves Search engines gatekeeps websites away, making it borderline impossible to find anything SEO optimized makes way too much noise to find anything meaningful And JavaScript makes browsers like Links borderline unusable
Not my experience. Links just makes borderline unusable websites completely unusable.
Ah, yes, of course, foolish of me
