What to do? Maybe there are more BSD desktop users?

I use Firefox and it looks fantastic to me. Nothing like what you mention happens. It must be some setting of yours.

Maybe a missing dependency. It builds succesfully anyway and it doesn't talk about any problems in the console output, apart from the common useless information overload.

I use packages, if that helps.

I can confirm this error is not your problem, because I have it as well, and I don't have any link color issue either.

It's a shame we can't fix:
DOS 6.11 and Windows 3.11 with Netscape....

It would be up to technical users / developers to lead the way.

Most software engineers have terrible web dev skills, usually a plain text website. If they could normalize on HTML4 rather than some random github pages / wordpress blog, we could bring back simple browsers.

I found and tossed some HTML tags around for a basic status page!

This website is also pretty inspirational

It was just an example of firefox output that I saw while using it, while there's no problem, and it doesn't show any related program component. Can we have a function name or line number? This is fake open source, in my opinion. Everything is garbled to an uncomprehensible mass of code to prevent modification. If you want something to be different, use an extension that's mostly approved unsafe.
