Show HN: Browservice – Browse the modern web on historical browsers
My OS of choice is OS X 10.9 "Mavericks". It's not old enough to be "Retro" yet, but I want to stay here for a while, and Firefox says they're dropping support in a year. And while there are a bunch of alternatives browsers I can move to (ArcticFox, Unofficial Intel Builds of TenFourFox, etc), they don't always work with every website.So, one long-term possibility I'm toying with is using OS X's implementation of X11. I could run Firefox in a modern Linux distro (probably a VM on the same machine, although it could be a different machine), and use X Forwarding to make it appear as a normal app. I think this should theoretically work for a lot of OS's, from the earliest versions of OS X to decade-old copies of Linux.Has anyone used this approach for old machines?
