Been using web outside of browser for last 10+ years. I am addicted to it, having written many scripts and programs to fetch and process HTML and other filetypes outside the browser. I can retrieve and extract data/information much faster and more efficiently using simpler programs that are small and work together. For viewing HTML, I prefer my text-only browser. HTML looks much better, less variable, more uniform, than in a graphical browser. The only reason these methods are appealing to me is because the alternatives are so unappealing. I avoid having to deal with the downsides of using "modern" web browsers and the annoyances of trying to view the web through those browsers.
