Show HN: Browsh – A modern, text-based browser
That failed massively for me in Terminal.app on OS X. The browser showed garbled text and horizontal half-height lines.
Is there a reason why Terminal.app might not work?

Terminal.app doesn't support true colour :( So it can't properly take advantage of the UTF-8 half block trick to get 2 pixels of colour from each cell - thus creating the banding effect you see.
