In another video I have the laptop connect directly to Reddit using a browser called Microweb instead, though in that case it's actually connecting to a proxy running on the server that handles translation of https to http.

There is actually another project called NeoSurf (https://github.com/CobaltBSD/neosurf/) which is a fork of NetSurf with the stated goals of "various privacy-focused improvements and additions, and a revamped build system." as well as other improvements.

Hello everyone, I've just published the first public release of NeoSurf, a small browsing suite based on NetSurf instead of Mozilla or Chromium. NeoSurf contains a large number of improvements over the now largely antiquated NetSurf browser, such as increased usage of system-libraries and focusing support on desktop Linux rather than obscure platforms. NeoSurf is by far the smallest standalone graphical web browser available that is capable of loading most websites, at less than 1% the size (as measured by lines of code/text) of Firefox's codebase. NeoSurf has limited JavaScript support. All websites that do not use JS should work exactly as expected, whereas sites that heavily utilize it tend to still load but may do so in unexpected ways. NeoSurf also supports a large number of additional improvements, such as: * A focus on privacy which was absent in NetSurf (DNT, DuckDuckGo instead of Google by default, etc) * Dedicated LibreSSL support * Separated common functions from the frontends with a shared libneosurf * Modernized the build system (CMake; bit of a hackjob at the moment, but it works) * Officially supported Visurf (Wayland only) and Gtk3 frontends Binaries are not available yet with this release, but compilation should be fairly straight-foward, but with a few temporary caveats, and the process for doing so is described in the README.md. At the moment, it is expected to work on any desktop Linux platform, but I have not had a chance yet to test it more thoroughly. Let me know if you encounter any problems. Other contributions also appreciated. https://github.com/CobaltBSD/neosurf/
