I should mention, there are other text-based browsers like w3m and Links, but I enjoy using Lynx most. - Source: dev.to / 2 months ago

I use http://links.twibright.com for surfing the local folders and lynx to retrieve pages. A little bit of sanity in this crazy world. - Source: Hacker News / 7 months ago

Every dash they remove is a byte (at least!) saved. This increases shareholder value. Your side note is solved by using the Links Browser[0]. I don't see the need to present a professional page when you're calling out one of the top 10 single points of global internet failure.[1] [0]http://links.twibright.com/ [1]Cloudflare routes 43% of the top 10,000 sites globally. - Source: Hacker News / about 1 year ago

I'm not totally sure I'd recommend that but I do like the markdown => html flow. - Source: Hacker News / over 1 year ago

I seem to be in the middle of trying to build something similar to this. I want it to run on an android phone but otherwise the same sort of idea, offline-first information I want access to. There's some weirdness around android browsers refusing to load html from the phone itself on security grounds. The OP uses a "progressive web app" which seems to be the proper way to do this at some point in the past, but... - Source: Hacker News / over 1 year ago

Yeah no doubt it, although in this case the C implementation has been a long running project that's under the official commonmark GitHub repo at https://github.com/commonmark/cmark. But I think the most important thing here is an Elixir NIF already exists to use it. The blog post as is leaves readers having to implement ~100 lines of Elixir code to use the Rust version because the authors of blog post didn't... - Source: Hacker News / about 4 years ago
