Probably InterWebPPC, a fork of the now defunct TenFourFox.

Just got two powermac g3s off Facebook market place for free, they work fully. Should I upgrade them to OS X 10?
Sorry, that’s old, outdated news about the browsers. There’s the ‘new’ InterWebPPC (“Mozilla for Power Macintosh”). Nobody has an excuse for not being able to browse much of the web on OS X 10.4 or 10.5 PowerPC machines today.

As a G5/G4 user myself I recommend installing tenfourfox or interweb ppc on the machine and con netting it to the router or switch with Ethernet as you did. With older browsers some websites don’t work as intended so they spit out some errors. ten four fox interweb ppc P.s. here some advice if you’re using a power Mac not all apps you find work on YouTube there are awesome communities that deal with retro machines and it could be entertaining and interesting follow they’re steps. this one in particular on YouTube is veri interesting and it explains awesome things on old computers and g5s.

Greetings from Snow Leopard! Still running like new!
ArcticFox which is a fork of PaleMoon and comes with updated versions of add-ons that are tweaked to run on it.

I found this old macbook online, and I really love old tech and want to use this Mac as a work Mac like putting music on my ipods and work on files. I'm wondering what Macbook is this and if it worth it in 2022 for what I want to do? I'm also wondering what the price range is for this device.
You may be able to get a super outdated version on there, but it would be awful. You'll want to either update the machine to snow leopard and use Arctic Fox which is a an older version of firefox but with security updates added. Don't expect it to be fast, and no youtube will not be useable.
- Netflix starting to kill off older devices [US][?]
- Dumb question but once Mac OS stops getting updates, will you still be able to do things like web browsing? Watching YouTube? Watch Netflix?
- Pale Moon is clearly incompatible with the BSDs, so for a rust-free Gecko-type browser, why not Arctic Fox?
