In-reply-to » Do you believe one can survive surfing the web using a text-based web browser? (i.e: Lynx or W3m) no CSS no Bling for at least 24 hours šŸ˜²

Well! My 24 hrs without a GUI Web browser was quite of a nice experience.
As a matter of fact, and as long as Iā€™m not doing any 3D work, I kind of donā€™t need gui applications as much as it feels like.

Even though, a couple of websites asked me to eff off because they need
JavaScript to work. Some others handed me a cold ā€œ402 Upgrade Requiredā€ client
error responseā€¦ (LOL letā€™s not even talk about how Github repos looked
and felt like). I have managed to fix a couple of things Iā€™ve been meaning to
for quite some time but never got, mainly to because of my browsing
habits. I tend to open a lot of tabs, read some, get distracted then
open some more and down the rabbit hole (or shall I say tabs) I go.

All in all, it was quite a nice experience.
How nice? It was an ā€œIā€™m dropping into a full TTY experience for another
24 hrsā€ kind of nice!

Although, I miss using a mouse already, but hey, I would have never
heard about gpm(8) otherwise.
