Jake in the desertFinally grabbed the MyPal browser for my Windows XP machine. Had heard about it a couple times now, this latest time from @WoodooProd, and wow, does it work great. Really the only browser for XP that will load Mastodon or other modern sites, etc. No other Windows XP browser I've found still will. π₯
