Brutaldon is an alternative Mastodon web client by @gcupc that works without JS and is usable in the Lynx browser: https://github.com/jfmcbrayer/brutaldon
This looks really neat. I love the idea of multiple Mastodon web clients, each tailored to a different niche. Keep 'em coming!
Welp, Brutaldon works as advertised https://toot.cafe/media/oyAVeT6_dX1WFlLRcaM https://toot.cafe/media/xbVBTzRhbB2FPzalxrk
The other interesting thing about Brutaldon is that it doesn't seem to store any user data in the local SQLite database. I'm poking around in there and only finding the access token and session tokens.
So it seems to act as a simple proxy โ fetches your data from the Mastodon API, then immediately forgets it. Good from a privacy POV!
