☠ Captain Arcee ☠Checking out the #brutaldon client and it looks super clean with the brutalist theme

Hey bud, IIRC, I couldn't get it working. :/
Looking at my past statuses with the #brutaldon hashtag, it looks like I got it working with #NetSurf and #w3m, but I don't see anything from (nor recall getting it working with) #Dillo. :/

One more question — how to download more toots for my home timeline, if I read the whole chunk, which was downloaded by #brutaldon ? In the footer of my timeline I have only this, no pagination or button to load more toots :-(
Finally, I found some time to install #brutaldon on the my #FreeBSD box in the #jail. Installation was pretty simple — just create thinjail and apply the next template to it (it is a Bastillefile):
CONFIG set enforce_statfs=1;
CONFIG set allow.mount.fdescfs;
CONFIG set allow.mount.procfs;
CONFIG set mount.procfs;
CONFIG set devfs_ruleset=70
RESTART
SYSRC clear_tmp_enable=YES
SYSRC clear_tmp_X=YES
CMD pkg bootstrap -f
CMD pkg update
PKG git py311-pipenv py311-lxml py311-sqlite3
CMD pw useradd brutaldon -s /bin/sh -m
CMD su - brutaldon -c 'cd /usr/home/brutaldon && git clone https://gitlab.com/brutaldon/brutaldon.git'
CMD su - brutaldon -c 'cd /usr/home/brutaldon/brutaldon && pipenv install'
CMD su - brutaldon -c 'cd /usr/home/brutaldon/brutaldon && pipenv run python ./manage.py migrate'
CONFIG remove ip4.addr;
CONFIG set ip4=inherit;
LIMITS pcpu 80
LIMITS memoryuse 2G
CP brutaldon /etc/rc.d/

I used thinjail which uses the same network and network interfaces as the host system, because I suck in networking :-D.
Sadly, I don't understand how to use brutaldon with #Dillo — looks like it is impossible 
I'm able to login to mastodon.bsd.cafe only via OAuth form, which doesn't work in Dillo — instead of it I got the "old" form with login/password/OAuth code credentials. And at the end I got the screenshot №1.
In the Librewolf I successfully logged in via the OAuth form, so I'm able to use brutaldon only in the Librewolf :-( (see screenshot №2 and №3).
IIRC, @rl_dane you are using Brutaldon with Dillo — how do you achieve that (main question — how to login? :-D )?
P.S. Contents of brutaldon startup script:

Sad part — even with big enough limits for the jail in the Bastillefile — brutaldon works not so fast. Possibly it is because it is written in Python, which wants a lot of memory/CPU, as I know from my experiments with home server, which has Intel Atom CPU inside and 2 Gb of memory :-D

AndiSI have had a quick look at #GotoSocial which is equally ligth and easy to host I'd say. But in my case I do need a visible timeline that I can integrate into a static (#hugo) website. GotoSocial does not have that, it only interacts via Apps.
I could use a separate frontend like #Brutaldon for that, or write something myself. But since Snac already comes with a Web-UI, I chose that.

Just FYI, I don't seem to be able to get #brutaldon.org and #GtS working in Dillo.
This is the error I get:

Beautifully so! Also #dillo and #miniflux!
I wasn't able to get #brutaldon working, though. It does work with #Netsurf, however.
As a large part of the #Fediverse, and a driving force for popularizing it (plus being where I had my first experiences on it), I really love #Mastodon.
But to me, it has two pretty annoying/concerning issues:
Requiring JS is kinda gauche for such a groovy, nerdy, counter-cultural place such as this.
And as we should all understand by know, GitHub (and Microsoft) are freaking evil
Ok, </rant>. Merci.
