Last time I checked, most sites don't display properly with lynx because 
they are not designed for text-based browses. All on the contrary, most 
web sites are full of useless images, but nonetheless, not displaying 
them breaks those sites.

There may be application for those browsers (like reading HTML manuals 
that have minimal formatting), but obviously they are not suitable for 
ordinary browsing.
