Show HN: Dillo 3.1.0 released after 9 years
TLDR: Dillo is a fast and small graphical web browser. It kind of died in 2017 and this is the first release after 9 years from the last one.
You can read the main website for more details[1].

And the release page[2], which explains a bit of the history of the project and the current state.

Ede – An Fltk based desktop environment
Sort-of mentioned this in a previous comment also, but I suppose FLTK is alive and well for regular users of Tiny Core Linux (of whom there are quite a bit, I guess -- myself included). The recently resurrected Dillo web browser also relies on it: https://dillo-browser.github.io/

Resurrecting the Dillo Browser
Thanks for your DPI work. I tested the gemini plugin and works very well.
My only complain is that it keeps asking to confirm new keys every time a new server is visited which causes a lot of friction to explore several gemini servers. I understand that is a tradeoff between usability and security, but I wish there was a better solution than that.
For now I uploaded Charles plugin written in shell script[1], which always trusts the certificate.

But I'm considering switching to the Go version if I can find a way to improve the UX.
Also, I kindly ask you to add the tag "dillo-plugin" so you can make Dillo plugins easily discoverable by searching for the tag in GitHub[2].

> I believe that in recent versions of Dillo, even https is implemented as a DPI plugin.
This was done initially[3] (before 2007) but it was moved to the browser itself[4] in 2016.

Damn Small Linux 2024
ELKS supported MMU-less operation on 8088 and 80286 machines, but I don't think an ARM port exists: https://github.com/ghaerr/elks

SIIG MiniSys S286 Small Form Factor PC
Roughly in the mid-90s I bought at a local surplus store a "Carry 1" industrial 8088 computer which to my surprise I later discovered it could run Linux (ELKS: https://github.com/ghaerr/elks). I ultimately sold it on Ebay because although it was a beautiful piece of old tech, I was struggling to find more space for other things.
Here's one. I had only the central unit, mine had two floppy drives.

I don't think you can replace the OS on these. Unless there is a way to boot them from DOS, but you are looking at 8c086 machine so the choice is limited. Linux or BSD won't work. But ELKS might if it can be made to boot from DOS. Minix 2.02 seems to work.

Furby 1998 Source Code
Some small size Linux-like OSes do exist though: one commenter suggested Lunix (which I didn't know, thanks for the link), and a slightly bigger one is ELKS which runs on old MMU-less x86 CPUs. I managed to run it on a 8088 industrial PC ages ago.

I should have a Furby buried somewhere; now that I think of it, it may be the right platform to stick a bigger brain into, make it wireless so that it could be connected to the home IoT network then signal events or alerts.
