: Pale Moon and recent versions of K-Meleon use Goanna, a single-process fork of Firefox's Gecko engine. Ultralight is a proprietary, source-available fork of WebKit focused on lightweight embedded webviews. My site works in these engines without any noticeable issues.
Alternative engines
: I test compatibility with current alternative engines: Ladybird (the SerenityOS browser), Servo, NetSurf, Kristall, and litehtml. I have excellent compatibility with litehtml, Ladybird, and Servo. The site is usable in NetSurf. litehtml and NetSurf do not support `<details>`, but remain usable. ~~[The SerenityOS browser lacks ECDSA certificate support](https://github.com/SerenityOS/serenity/issues/14160), but the Tildeverse mirror works fine.~~ <ins itemprop="correction" itemscope="" itemtype="https://schema.org/CorrectionComment" cite="https://github.com/SerenityOS/serenity/commit/f9386737a631b5f3b7eb1920bd4440a2784359e9">Update <time itemprop="datePublished">2024-01-30</time>: <span itemprop="text">[SerenityOS LibTLS merged support for these ciphers in October 2023](https://github.com/SerenityOS/serenity/commit/f9386737a631b5f3b7eb1920bd4440a2784359e9), resolving this incompatibility</span></ins>.

Textual browsers
: The site works well with textual browsers. All features except `<details>` work in Lynx and Links2. I include [felinks (an ELinks fork)](https://github.com/rkd77/elinks), edbrowse, and w3m in my tests. [w3m doesn't support soft hyphens](https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=830173), but the site is still otherwise usable in it. I support these engines by making CSS a strictly-optional progressive enhancement and by using semantic markup. I test with Edbrowse less often. No textual browser supports `<details>`.
Abandoned engines
: I occasionally test abandoned engines, sometimes with a TLS-terminating proxy if necessary. These engines include Tkhtml, KHTML, Dillo,[^1] Internet Explorer[^2] (with and without compatibility mode), Netscape Navigator, old Presto-based Opera versions,[^3] and outdated versions of current browsers. No abandoned engine supports `<details>`. I use Linux, but testing in Internet Explorer depends on my access to a Windows machine. Besides the `<details>` issues, the site works well in Internet Explorer 11 and Opera Presto. The site has layout issues but remains usable in Tkhtml, KHTML, and Netscape.

Others
: WeasyPrint uses a custom browser engine optimized for print. I test a small selection of representative pages with it. Should I ever stumble across a VR headset, I'll be sure to test Wolvic too.
