This is completely irrelevant, but I get pissed off even when websites don't support Lynx.


Not entirely irrelevant, the thread is about browser support.

Also, I agree. I have a laptop with about 256 mb of working ram, so I only use terminal apps with it. If I'm trying to look up documentation and the site doesn't work with lynx it is not a happy day.

And that doesn't even touch on servers.


Looks like we are silent friends. The one thing I often get is just a message "JavaScript is not supported" and the other is wacky and long indices at the top. But, just having mywebsite.com/txt would not be a crazy idea...


Indeed.

That's what I don't understand. How hard is it to just make a plain text copy of the data to serve to people who want it instead.
