Checking Reddit on an Intel 8088 running Windows 1.04 on a modem from the 1960s
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.

I programmed own Web browser in C++ it is only 78 megabytes!
Contratulations! I was also working on Qt Ultralight Browser based on Ultralight. Unfortunately it does not support many modern Web APIs.

Chromium-based browser dev - features?
If you think most Chromium-based browsers are bloated, you're right. Try some lightweight alternatives: Pale Moon, Otter Browser, MetaDock or my pre-alpha Qt Ultralight Browser.

Is there any browser that has that old interface (~90s, ~2000s, for example), that can be use nowadays?
I am also working on Qt Ultralight Browser with a classic chrome, stay tuned.

New browsers
There are: Flow Browser, Stack Browser, Nux, Holla, MicroWeb, Puppy Browser and my Qt Ultralight Browser (WIP).

So... i made a DuckDuckGo browser... (you can ask me how to do it in the comments)
If you want to make something more ambitious than the 100th Chrome clone, try basing on something different than Chromium, like my Qt Ultralight Browser (WIP) based on Ultralight.
