Any way to read Reddit on emulated classic Mac?
Now this is interesting. If the OP has a more modern computer (or even a Raspberry PI) he can use WebONE HTTP Proxy

Finally got my first Mac ever (iBook G3 Dual USB - Late 2001)
Classilla + webone works well.

MASTODON WE COME!
Some nerdy details:The open source app is written in MacPython 1.5.2. In order to run it there's a bunch of tinkering required. You need to enable Open Transport Networking (Apple Extras - Network Software selector). You will also need Internet Config 1.4. In there you have to play a bit around with the DNS-settings for it to actually find anything. Furthermore you need to host a WebOne HTML proxy on a modern machine to bypass the SSL-requirement of Mastodon. The latter can be assigned globally in the Internet Config too. To sign in into your Mastodon instance you also may need something like iCap which worked for me to complete the sign in process.Expect to do some troubleshooting (since nothing will work haha) or maybe don't do it altogether since OS 7 is everything but a piece of software you want to connect to the internet.

browservice
- Best way to go about using 2000 on the modern web.

Connect to internet
Browservice - proxy but goes one step further and renders the page and actually only sends back a clickable image to the browser on the old machine. Almost like screensharing.

make ie6 render pages normally.
Browservice may be suitable if you have to use IE6 and you're OK using a proxy system.
-
If you're happy with OpenBSD, probably any computer is good enough
"browservice" will render web pages server-side and then deliver them to your browser as an image with simple javascript.
It works in virtually all "old" browsers and can be very useful for older computers.

Current Google Chrome in 32-bit XP: Easy Mode
A 4th gen i7, the VM gets 2.3 GB, but I've done similarly stupid stuff on an AMD Athlon 64 (sluggish but usable, 720p YT dropping frames but watchable). Browservice running in a VM to serve XP's IE8 is another fun Goldbergian trick.
