If browsers which does "server-side rendering" are blocked from accessing my Google Account, I lose my access to all Google services requiring sign-in like Gmail etc.
I don't have the privilege to own a desktop, laptop, or even smartphone. I am using a J2ME enabled feature phone with Opera Mini to access the internet. Most websites requiring "modern browsers" are out of reach from me. Thanks to all the people who maintain the websites that are functional without JS or upto ES5.1 (last JS version supported by Opera's server rendering powered by Presto) or less. Only Google Search and Gmail works in Opera Mini, other Google services don't.
Rent a vps and run WRP [0] on it. WRP is basically a proxy that use chromium and render the pages as imagemap html pages that compatible with older/simpler browsers. It should works on opera mini. Hopefully google won't block it outright.
If I could rent a VPS, I could buy a smartphone instead. sigh
My j2me phone's screen resolution is 320x240, and Opera's server does a respectable job in transforming webpages to fit into that small screen size. It also uses a binary file format named OPML to encode the transformed page. With my 2G internet connection, it'd take much more time to load a page and cost me more to load images.

So I am out of luck! Anyone out of luck like me?
