It's really odd. It reminds me of the old internet, though, so it gives me nostalgia.

It's not really usable as a main browser though.

Edit: I meant Dillo. I shouldn't watch Olbermann before posting....

dillo would work fine if more webpages were standards-compliant.

In terms of browser complexity, I have a hierarchy

lynx<dillo<kazehakase<firefox|konqueror

I have used it in the past. These days, Firefox 3.0.X is fine for me. It seems much more stable than the 2.0.0.X version.

I use it and even though it looks worse with the FLTK, this new version is much, much faster than it already was.

I use it as my quick install browser for when I'm setting up a system (for example compiling KDE) so that I can still somewhat browse the internet.

Use it, sometimes when i just need to load up a small page in a hurry. Sucks it doesn't do HTTPS though. (Also I use claws-mail which has a plugin to view HTML emails with dillo. This is kinda slow though.)

The patched Dillo in DSL is pretty good, and I use it to test web pages and connections.

Is there any way for Dillo to run HTTPS? It would be fine if so.

i didn't realize that dillo2 finally came out! i've always liked the idea of using dillo.. but it just doesn't cut it sometimes.
