Unless you have x-forwarding (and an X server running locally) or VNC you can't really use a graphical browser remotely yes?

This lets you use it from plain SSH connection?

In what situation do you need to do that is what the previous commenter qas getting at.

If you want a graphical browser just open it locally...

The primary idea was just can it be done. But it then went crazy, being mentioned on big portals such as hackaday, makeuseof, etc… I have also received messages people using this to access internal Grafana stack without need to be on VPN, so people found the reason for its existence by themselves. Also I am big fan of terminal apps, so why not.
