I lived on a mixture of Lynx, Links2, and Browsh when I first lived on my own as I couldn’t afford internet so I used a friend’s who lived down the road. As I had to use a huge antenna to get signal, I suffered slow speeds and packet loss so I spent a couple of years in text-based browsers.

I got so used to it, I used Browsh for a while after I got internet access to my rental as I can grown quite attached to a terminal-only system and ditching DEs and WMs.
