Speaking of WebKit, recent webkit-gtk-2.26.x seems a lot more ppc friendly! I am running it via epiphany browser on the G4 DP (Void Linux) since a while. No crashes and no graphical glitches so far as it has been the case with webkit-gtk-2.24.x. Youtube playback (libvpx? gstreamer?) is of course another thing...
But most probably the devs already noticed.
Apparently, you are correct.
One of the VoidLinux developers had this to say:
"I think we're also the only distro to currently have working javascript on 32-bit PowerPC with WebKit, as I took care to get that patched a couple months ago."Running Webkit from the second half of 2019 would be a nice step even if media files are not working. On MorphOS, you could always still run an existing version of Odyssey separately for video playback, etc.
