@bsdtv alas, getting a modern browser that runs on PPC is an unfortunate situation ☹ And the slightly odd one-button-mouse concerns.

But OpenBSD works quite nicely on my iBook G4 with some key-mapping-as-mouse-buttons or an external multi-button mouse.

@gumnos whatever do you mean?! We have Lynx:

OpenBSD www/w3m,image port

@bsdtv yeah, lynx, links/links2, w3m, and dillo all work wonderfully on PPC, but alas, the modern web doesn't always play nicely with them. But for sites that do… 🥰

@gumnos and you just *know* there is someone out there with a script with a curl | regex command to pull data off a non-friendly website they frequent from some old box they are not ready to let go of just yet. Thankfully we can still give such machines other jobs to do.
