Found it again after a bit of googling. It’s called Browsh. Haven’t played with it yet (will report back when I do) but from the demo on that github page it seems to work pretty well.
UPDATE: I’ve tried it out and hooooly craaaaaap this is good. If I didn’t know this was running in a terminal I would never have guessed. I would’ve just assumed it was a novelty browser meant to evoke that style. Smooth scrolling works astonishingly well as does video playback.
Lol, I’m already up and running. It’s pretty good, and I can actually use my mouse with it in bash. Protip, it seems very important to use the right window size. It’s good enough to do a lot of normal browsing, but openstreetmap understandably had broken controls. The only local issue is that I can’t see what I’m entering into the URL bar.
It’s also designed to run distributed, so you can use shitty bandwidth between a rendering machine and the display machine. I should try fitting it into a radio channel or phone connection or something, haha. I also wonder if it could be adapted to work with Tor Browser.
I’m absolutely fascinated if somebody can point me to that.
How well did it render most sites, compared to the other CLI browsers?
