Ever since I was an avid Lynx text only browser user, I've been asking for a complicated ~~privacy invasive (if the AI is remote)~~ (hey neat, it's local!) browser that interacts with me in a nedlessly conversational way. Thank goodness someone is finally cramming AI into my simple web lookups. (/Sarcasm)

How do you log into lemmy on lynx? I've been trying to find a text browser I can use for lemmy, with no success so far.

I belive there are standalone TUI lemmy clients

Yes, there's a really great one called Neonmodem Overdrive.
Which currently doesn't display anything on lemmy. I already opened an issue and the developer is looking into it. But for now, there are no options to read and post on lemmy from the console, and I've spent a day researching alternatives.
Browsh doesn't work cause it doesn't receive mouse clicks from GPM due to a bug. All the l*nks browsers don't support whatever Javascript is needed to log in.
If you have another option, I'm all ears.

Tab groups how? Bunched up into 1 tab so you can't see anything or are they replacing the Simple Tab Groups extension. And what's different from the current profile manager.

Changes are all well and good until they force me to change my workflows even a little; then technology has gone too far!!!

That's all fine and good but Firefox on Android is currently in a sorry state. No per-site process isolation, buggy, can't keep tabs open, slow, choppy, drains battery. Had to uninstall it on my brand new Galaxy S24+ and my Pixel 6 Pro because it was draining so much battery. When are you going to finally stop ignoring Firefox Android, Mozilla?

I've been using it for at least a decade now and haven't encountered any of the issues you mention.

Local AI sounds nice. One reason I'm cynical about the current state of AI is because of how many send all your data to another company

[-] MacNCheezus@lemmy.today 1 points 6 months ago

It is. Unfortunately it does tend to use up a lot of RAM and requires either a fairly fast CPU or better yet, a decent graphics card. This means it's at least somewhat problematic for use on lower spec or ultraportable laptops, especially while on battery power.

Eh, as long as the browser works...

Local AI, or also, how AI should be. Actually helpful, instead of a spying and data gathering tool for companies
