alt Hacker News> I also tried with a Raspberry Pi Zero 2, but 512 MB of RAM were too little to run a modern browser, sadly.
I found that the surf browser was efficient enough to run fine on my Raspberry Pi Zero W. YMMV with animations and such, but it's much better than any chromium alternative in my experience.

Interesting, surf is based off WebKit2.
I’ve previously used luakit browser [1] with cage WM [2] on a Pi Zero 2 W for my clock build, and it worked quite well.
