just VS browsh

You can roll your own or use a utility library. A simple zero-dependency library would be something like just-group-by [1]. Although I now prefer remeda [2] as it seems to have the best typescript support, especially the strict variants such as `grouBy.strict`.

Tree-shaking doesn't help much when the tree-shaken implementation is so bloated.

Here's the one you referenced, lodash.chunk: https://unpkg.com/lodash.chunk – 140 lines after removing comments and whitespace.

That's pretty small compared to a lot of the lodash utilities. Try spot-checking a few on unpkg.

I prefer angus's `just` utilities: https://github.com/angus-c/just

I absolutely love this. When I need some Lodash alternative I'll usually reference angus-c/just but I am definitely bookmarking this for next time.

The just set of utility functions are really nice to use. https://github.com/angus-c/just

Just doesn't have everything but it's pretty good

One of my favourite "libraries" are the "just" packages, where each part of the library is it's own simple package with zero dependencies (https://github.com/angus-c/just) so you essentially just npm install the specific thing you want - which is generally a single function.

If the code should, as you say, be 5 lines, why take on a dependency at all? By doing so, you end up with a catch-all solution that does almost nothing other than JSON.stringify your args, which is extremely poorly optimized to handle many situations, e.g. one of your args is a primitive and the other is a large config object.

In some cases, that is true, but not all, and I suggest not even most. In many cases, I think people are just as liable for being unwilling to use Whonix.

https://github.com/browsh-org/browsh can be pretty decent, too. It's a shame that it's not common practice to provide resource gleanings in the form of such access to random others from one's VPS. Easily reproduced NixOS tool in VM with locked down containers proxying through a local tor would scale up alright and significantly limit risks for the donor. I find very few people take up the offer to even use another's VPS though.

P.S. I couldn't manage to log in on Lynx, w3m, elinks etc. I also couldn't get Browsh working (https://www.brow.sh/)

I use EWW as a browser in emacs but sometimes I need a browser that is more GUI oriented. I stumbled on two such browsers that can be used in a terminal: Carbonyl and Browsh

On the fancier side of what you can do with (the real) Linux console, see things like: https://www.brow.sh/
