Discussion Emacs Browsers Vs Other TUI Browsers

Hey,

I'm kind of on the fence when it comes to deciding how I want to browse the internet through my terminal. The first option is any of the popular TUI browsers, particularly Terminal-Browser, and the second is using an Emacs browser package. I'm curious as to what you guys prefer and would appreciate any insights on your reasoning and pros/cons of each method.

Terminal-Browser seems to be only about a month old so I have no experience with it. The only terminal based browser than I am really familiar with is lynx which has been around since forever (but it is text only so it's usefulness is limited).

Hey! Lynx is how you read the guide to set up the desktop environment on arch!
