I wish the nesting of replies were visible in elinks. I just see one post after another in a linear fashion. I can't tell which post is a reply to which. That nesting is visible on w3m, though, so that's neat.

Still, I can't seem to be able to collapse thread branches because it requires javascript. That's a shame.

I wonder if w3m would recognize something like:

    .collapse:checked + .content-and-replies-container {
      display: none;
    }
