I pride myself on making my webpages as compatible as possible with browsers no one uses.
Full compatibility
All features work as expected.
- Firefox (desktop)
- Firefox (mobile)
- Webkit (desktop)
- Webkit (mobile)
- IE Edge (desktop)
Firefox is highly reccomended!
Near-full compatibility
These browsers lack some features by design.
-
Elinks
- Partial javascript (non-critical)
- Partial CSS (non-critical)
- Will not render any text in an i or em tag. This does not seem to be terminal dependent.
- No video support (non-critical)
- No image support (due to running in text mode)
- Site is otherwise fully compatible
-
Links2 (gui)
This browser is highly reccomended!
- No javascript (non-critical)
- No CSS (non-critical)
- No video support (non-critical)
- Site is otherwise fully compatible
-
Links2 (cli)
- No javascript (non-critical)
- No CSS (non-critical)
- No video support (non-critical)
- No image support (due to running in text mode)
- Site is otherwise fully compatible
-
Links (prior to Links2)
- No javascript (non-critical)
- No CSS (non-critical)
- No video support (non-critical)
- No image support (due to running in text mode)
- Site is otherwise fully compatible
Partial compatibility
The site is usable in these browsers, but it is annoying/hard, and some features are missing.
-
Lynx (cli)
- No javascript (non-critical)
- No CSS (non-critical)
- No video support (non-critical)
- No image support (due to running in text mode)
- No table support, so layout is broken
- Site is otherwise fully functional
-
Kristall
This browser gets a bit of a pass because it is not primarily designed around HTTP and HTML
- No javascript (non-critical)
- No CSS (non-critical)
- No video support (non-critical)
- No image support (it is unclear why)
- No form support
- As a result, the site can be viewed but not interacted with.
-
Internet Explorer (non-edge)
Very bizzare issues but the site functions.
-
Nintendo 3DS internet
-
Randomly fails to load parts of the page:
- Does not understand the site certificate, is somehow able to communicate over http anyways
- Seems to not understand a large portion of CSS
- Navigation menu does not open, pages must be visited by typing in the url (NEED TO FIX)
- No javascript (non-critical)
- No video support (non-critical)
- Site is otherwise fully functional
Unusable
These browsers are... yeah.
-
Netscape Navigator (4.0)
- Site must be accessed locally (no common encryption algorithms)
- Javascript must be disabled
- No button support, so some forms are broken
- Occasional crashes under wine
- No iframe support (non-critical)
Untested, with plans to do so
I haven't got around to testing these yet.
Untested, with no plans to do so
I do not use these browsers, or care if they are compatible.
- Chrome/Chromium/Edge/Opera/Brave (desktop)
- Chrome/Chromium/Edge/Opera/Brave (mobile)
