Try palemoon perhaps.

Seamonkey is an old school fork of Netscape before they pulled out Firefox. I suspect the CSS rendering is marginal CSS 2.

I use Seamonky on OpenBSD i386 arch as Firefox no longer supported. I am using deliberately low spec computers for personal surfing.

The links render shows the 'skip to main content' link which is always a good sign that accessibility has been addressed.

If you have a few minutes to kill, I'd love to know how allaboutberlin.com feels on such a device. I sometimes choose convenience over coverage, but I still try to make the website accessible.
Thinkpad T42, 1Gb ram, slackware 14.2, seamonkey 2.53 with noscript legacy plugin operating.

Loads fast, looks clean, content seems to be available - each of the 'cards' opens a page with a graphic, a table of contents in a contrasting grey colour and then text giving information. There is then a 'classified ads' section with links at the bottom.

Looks identical on my 'normal' machine with Firefox 102-esr and ublock origin and more ram/faster processor &c.

A quick look in the text mode browser links in a uxterm window showed that text content was available. The home window links show as two rows of text links - works ok.

I'm on a pretty fast G4 'mobile broadband' connection in UK with around 2.5Mb/sec (probably the old Thinkpads wifi limit) and around 45 mSec latency from ping.

Just one observation:

https://allaboutberlin.com/ works fine

https://www.allaboutberlin.com/ gives a page not found.

This reply is not very timely - I'm not logged in on HN that often!

Not the person you asked, but I just opened it on Firefox on Mac. That website is _blazing fast_. It opened in a fraction of a second. Really good job!
