I made a build based on a modern Windows browser in 2024 to work
with the Gopher:// protocol. Now any owner of a modern computer
with modern Windows can access Gopher:// without problems.
What about us owners of a modern computer with modern Linux?

You can use either links (links2?) or lynx. Or just gopher.
Well, yes. But the point of the OP was that there as a new (?) GUI/graphical browser to use on gopher sites. I know about links/lynx,
but was referring to something like firefox/chromium (in a GUI) on
Linux.

Hm, is the point to be able to use the mouse? IIRC those text web
browsers started accepting mouse events, so just theme up a
terminal with the colors of your gui browser or however you like
it, and bam. It's all just text, right?
Well, yes, again... No, the point isn't about using a mouse, and I know it's all text. It was about the original post specifying that this was
all for Windows, so I wondered about an equivalent for Linux. I mean,
it's all text under Windows, too, right?
What would be the difference between text inside a gui window and text inside a terminal inside a gui window?
I understand the technical difference, but from a usability and aesthetics perspective, you can make them the same.
