You might give Qupzilla a try. It's very fast and pretty light, but it does require Qt5. The only reason I stopped using it is because I got attached to the Vimperator add-on for Firefox.
I use Vimperator as well. It's a great idea, if only it wasn't so utterly broken.
No, I can live without Vimperator, but some sort of smart Javascript blocker is a must. Qt5 was a massive headache last time I tried to build it for trying out that new version of LXDE, but I'll check Qupzilla out regardless. Thanks.
I use FVWM95 as my window manager, except I don't use it. I start an xterm and start every app from the console with an added & to keep the console free. I use heirloom mailx as the mail client: no security holes.

xterm and JWM to manage open windows(I saw it on puppy linux).
Palemoon with javascript often disabled.
emacs because Saint iGNUcius (blessed be his computer) said that VI VI VI is the editor of the beast.

Vi is no such thing, sir! Eh... Vim isn't, at the very least.
I asked elsewhere, but since we're on topic, any quick tips for someone attempting to learn the basic capabilities of emacs?

(666) Funny! I don't remember seeing that during the long text editors war.
EDIT: A quick Internet search showed references to this. I must lead a sheltered life. I'm a VI user and haven't had a need to visit emacs sites. I guess I need to expand my reading.

maybe even publish a binder with sticky hard cover for select (many) programs?

Lol, just about memorized most of the Bash and XTerm ESC sequences. Having a great deal of free time, I like to add colorful text, geometry, menus, mouse support, and all sorts of ADD things to simple terminal programs and even Bash scripts. Without ncurses. Great deal of free time.
Most other things like Lynx, xpdf, bash, window manager, etc. I just map Vi keys and be done with it. Probably not a great practice if I need to use another machine.
