How was it? What programs did you use?

I want to try it, but the browser thing is a deal breaker I think.

      Trying to use the tui browsers would be pure torture for me. Pictures, icons, custom colors, sizing and layouts are so integral to the web… hell even markdown in a terminal isn’t ideal since it can’t do header sizes.

      Tuis do make sense for a lot of things, but not for media heavy things like the web.

      There are things like w3m and other text browsers. I could maybe even get away with curl if I knew it better.

      I watch a lot of YouTube, so I could maybe utilize the YouTube downloader cli tool so I can watch them locally.

        Some video players (like mpv) allow you to stream directly from Youtube, with no need to download the full thing.
