Does anyone know of a #smolweb -type proxy I could run for #retrocomputing needs? What I have in mind is something that <li>Proxies HTTPS to HTTP for old machines</li><li>Has built-in ad-blocking</li><li>Possibly pre-renders JavaScript pages </li><li>And then strips down pages</li>
Is this a daydream or does such a thing exist?
