#13When I first installed GUI on Linux on my Rpi zero(with 512MB RAM), it was one of the three browsers along with midori,qute that worked without crashing.

#14I used Dillo when I ran OpenBSD on my laptop in 2003. Running a full desktop environment with text editor and web browser open: 28 MB RAM I remember that Dillo did not support automatic redirects back then. They were everywhere.
I remember the late 90s QNX Floppy demo disk - OS/Desktop (well GUI), demo apps, and a web browser on a single floppy (1.44MB).

#15Dillo to me is a triumph that exhibits everything great about lightweight environments on Linux. When I had almost no money and an even massively out of date for the time Pentium 2 laptop, I was able to get a version of puppy Linux running and using dillo to browse the web and it was lightning fast.
Dillo is and has always been relentlessly lightweight and in my mind no other browser compared at executing on this mission so well.
Thank you for breathing life into my impossibly old Toshiba Tecra in 2008.

#16I remember using Dillo years ago, I think on Damn Small Linux.

#17I wonder, is there a good reason to use Dillo over something like Netsurf or Ladybird nowadays? They support far more of the Web (i.e. more likely to be useful) while still being lightweight.
Ladybird is pretty far from approachable for most folks at this point but one day will hopefully be a great option in that space

Unfortunately, with it's use of Swift code, QT (which is now a bloated piece of trash since version 5) etc. It's just not tenable unless they give us a pure version without that shit

#19I love Dillo.
But I have lately been trying Dillo+ which adds some quality of life features. Have these features been incorporated into the existing Dillo?

What about Netsurf? Have you tried it?
