There’s no shortage of cool things you can do right from within your Linux terminal, but did you know you can browse web pages from the command line? While browsing web pages in your terminal won’t look exactly the same as it does in a proper browser, it can be very useful in a pinch. In this…

Fedora 39 review ?
lynx that is back from 2000'ish so what is new?
w3m -f (not sure if it was upper or lower case) is also worth mentioning. It allows to view the website with its frames in place which often improves the viewing experience β€οΈ but important video.
Not to mention that this kind of browsers are one the safer: no download, no scripting, no ads, no popup bullshittery
Does anyone know how to navigate w3m inside a web page's search field, i.e. open white left bracket, red underscoring, close white right bracket? I like w3m's colors when "browsing" web pages but haven't figured out how to use it further than that. Searching a website is very important too. Meanwhile, links2 works fine for browsing and searching. Thanks.
Thank you Jay for the great video. Just tried googler as well
Jays hair looks weird π
Seems like it would be good for wikipedia, especially if using satellite or radio internet with low bandwidth.
There're other web browsers you should have used rather than links2.
Donβt .
Dedicate a burner vm to do 100% of your browsing and downloading!
You should really only use CLI browsers as a last resort due to privacy (cookies, fingerprinting, etc). Lynx allows you to reject cookies, but Links2 and w3m do not. So you should always definitely use a browser with privacy features for the modern web, or just avoid the web altogether βοΈ
I installed w3m in Ubuntu 22.04 and Fedora 36 as the command shared by you … the curious is that in Fedora never was possible load the Figures … in Ubuntu zero problems.
Oh boy.. I remember browsing using Lynx back in the 90s.. I wouldn't figure it'd be useable these days…
Is this a joke?
This is like 1990s
When he first said "links2", I thought he was saying "Lynx 2". Lynx was the terminal web browser I was using 30 years ago. And is still available – at least on Mint.
Reminds me of my MS DOS 6 days π
Old news! Used to do it with Lynx many years ago…..
Very cool. I used to use the original π
Will watch this one over the weekend but had to click to just come give our friend a like to show support. Have gained so much from this channel. Thanks for all the work you put in Jay!
