What a strange experience - browsing the web with brow.sh, a web browser for the console that does all sorts of tricks to turn web packages into "ASCII art": it runs Firefox in headless mode in the background, and samples colors from a screenshot.

The use case is maybe rather limited, but turning very old IT hardware into an up-to-date communication device is one.

How neat: browsh, a modern text-based browser for the terminal.

“It renders anything that a modern browser can; HTML5, CSS3, JS, video and even WebGL.”

I've lost whoever shared this, but thanks to them. A browser with a bunch of interesting features. There's custom CSS, which I've wondered about for a while: why don't I look at websites the way I want to? The nature of HTML is such that it *is* structured information, why not display that how I want?

I haven't actually tried it out yet - I'll have a go over Christmas. And there's a few features that I already recognise as 'good' from #Vivaldi. So let's see.

Ideally what I want is #vim in browser form - I use #vimium (and as #arc is #chromium I should be ok to carry on with that) and I keep toying with the idea of #lynx or #browsh and a bunch of faffing to modify them to my desires. But let's give Arc a bash and see what's gwarning.
