Speaking only for myself....

One of the biggest reasons for using a DOS browser
is that it does NOT support JS and therefore is TONS faster
than JS capable browsers for those sites which do not need JS

This board does not need JS therefore.....

For those sites I visit that do need JS... Linux Firefox
