I was worried mine was gonna be worse, but its functional and doesn't look half bad! Tried lynx and w3m to compare results!
lynx
Lynx Notes: The colors seem to at least partially be coming from my CSS and the contrast is pretty bad on some of the text. I worked on that for in a browser before but might need to take a look into why this is happening here.
w3m
w3m Notes: I like the layout of the lynx home page better. This didn't line break as well as lynx did but its still workable, just not as easy to quickly parse down. But I think due to the contrast I find the actual blog post MUCH easier to read in w3m
I looked around and it turns out those colors lynx shows are from a "theme", the default color scheme. I have been playing around with the config file for the theme and made slightly better: here is the link.
Also, because I had nothing better to do I made myself a few function for my .zshrc
# Transform the arguments into a valid url querystring
urlencode(){local args="$@"
jq -nr--arg v "$args"'$v|@uri';}# Query duckduckgo
duckduckgo(){
lynx -lss=~/.config/lynx/lynx.lss "https://lite.duckduckgo.com/lite/?q=$(urlencode "$@")"}
To make it more convenient you can make an alias (or two).

Gatsby for the win! Text-based browsers work surprisingly well with static generated sites.
Ya it's been a while since I messed with Gatsby stuff and I didn't remember how good the no-js story was, so was more than happily surprised!
Been thinking of making sure the no-js experience wasn't awful so thanks for the kick in the right direction!
