Hmm, well you never said that you wanted webites to render correctly,
and that's a very significant requirement. You're limited to browsers
based on Chromium or Firefox because they're the only ones that
website developers bother to test with, and their browser engines are
both bloated and slow to my standards.

Some of us don't mind, or ever prefer, the broken (or perhaps better
termed "unintended") rendering of websites in lightweight browsers.
No adds, no pop-ups or hovering bars, no custom fonts, content isn't
hidden for the sake of styling. It's only when needing to interact
with some Javascript-based system that the need for a mainstream
browser unfortunately arises.
