Right now I’m trying to use my terminal for everything so I was thinking to maybe give a shot for one of the terminal http browsers. There’s so many of them and I don’t know what are the differences between them. I would like to have gemini and gopher support at the same time as I’m using them also so. If you know which one have features like that please share with this information also.

Please give answers related to question or share your experience with browsing internet in terminal. I don’t want to see comments saying that there’s no point in it because modern web is as it is. Let me have fun 😄

    Sorry, I will not talk about browsers in your list because I’ve tried them and my personal preference goes to chawan for these reasons:

    • has CSS layout support
    • has HTML5 support with various encodings
    • can display Inline images in terminals that support Sixel or Kitty protocols (opt-in feature)
    • offers basic JavaScript support via QuickJS (opt-in)
    • supports HTTP(S), SFTP, FTP, Gopher, Gemini…
    • has built-in viewers for Markdown, man pages, and directory listings
    • has Incremental loading
    • uses multi-processing, so several buffers can be loaded at once
    • offer mouse support, bookmarks, and protocol handling extensible by users

    If you want to check another option, there’s also brow.sh.

    Hope this helps in your web terminal journey :)
