Brutaldon, and links2

   Way of trust

  If there is someone you trust and they offer to let you use their
  brutaldon instance, your battle is already won. You just direct
  yout browser to the url.

  Here we are using a publicly reachable instance hosted by praetor,
  a good friend of the Lispy Gopher Show and a father of many
  machines.

    * $ links2 brutaldon.praetor.tel

   Way of purity

  You may want to run a brutaldon server locally, just for yourself
  and connect to it through a socket. This way the only person you
  need to trust is yourself.

    * install python3 and pip, ie: # pkg_add python3 python3-pip
    * install pipenv through pip: $ pip install pipenv
    * $ git clone https://gitlab.com/brutaldon/brutaldon
    * $ cd brutaldon
    * $ pipenv install
    * $ pipenv run python ./manage.py migrate
    * $ pipenv run python ./manage.py runserver

  At this point your local brutaldon server is running. Point links2 to
  127.0.0.1:8000

    * $ links2 127.0.0.1:8000

   Now listen very closely

  People get this wrong and blame the holy browser for faults that
  are in fact its features. Whether you took the way of trust or
  purity, the following applies to both.

    * Click on Log in
    * Go to the bottom and select old login form
    * Enter your credentials and log in
    * You will be brought back to the main page, seemingly not
      logged in.
    * Click on Log in again
    * Hard-refresh the page with Ctrl+r
    * Mastodon menu pops up at the top, choose whichever
