From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

I'm bored and want to practice my Rust skills. I am the creator of open-tv. If you have any idea for a linux desktop app, even if it seems quite complex, I will take it.

There used to be lynx. Oh look, it's still being maintained. Not sure how well it works though, might have to try it out:

I tried lynx, links, links2, elinks and w3m. None of them let me log into any website.

I also tried browsh and carbonyl which theoretically support everything Firefox and Chromium can do, respectively.
But they don't receive signals from gpm and don't offer keyboard navigation so I can't click on any links in a TTY.
