sr.ht is such a pain to browse, why would someone pick this over GitHub.

and it doesnt show the project language(s), the first thing i do when checking a repo on github is to check the languages used, and usually this help me decided whether or not i want to follow this project or not ocaml, f#, clojure, zig, raku, array language --> insta follow rust, smalltalk , lisp/scheme --> 50-50 python --> boooo , not gonna follow

`.nim` if we go by the last commit.

Battery life

Not so much; running Chrome headlessly can yield almost the same power usage as a graphical spawn one.

You would run browsh on a power unconstrained server that you SSH to from your power-constrained device.

You're not supposed to run it on the same device. You're supposed to run it from a server and SSH into it to save power on the client device.
