I normally dislike electron use for desktop applications but in this case it's a web browser so I don't see the problem. If you want an Emacslike text-based browser, maybe run emacs -nw and use eww?


Yeah. That's pretty much what I do. I bounce between EWW, Lynx and Firefox. But EWW's not without it's quirks. And sometimes I like seeing pictures. I guess I should just add sixel support to EWW.


It would be simpler to switch to GUI Emacs, where EWW can natively show pictures.
