I similarly use Lynx alongside Firefox for when I don't want to context switch out of my shell (or am on a headless system).

I've set up various aliases in my dotfile repo that make it easy for me to do search through Lynx to google, ddg, wikipedia etc as well as instantly bring up my most used and read news (and other) sites.

It is really rather handy when you get used to it. But it simply could never replace a modern browser due to the JS dependencies needed.
