Twitter’s mobile site, for instance, is looking pretty good.

That surprised me as I wondered just how much JS capabilities the browser has; then I realised that article was written in 2013, when Twitter was still relatively sane and not the bloated SPA it is today (yet the actual content being displayed is not much different from 10 years ago.)

To me, that is the most heartbreaking part - the only thing that has changed is bloat. Hackernews still works pretty well on the platform.

The old-net kind of works on the DSi's browser, utilizing snapshots. But SSL issues today have also made the browser quite cumbersome.
