Can it load Po... Can it load videos from video sites?

Just like the Switch, it's there to sign into hotel/airplane/airport/public wifi that need some type of credentials.

Im guessing they did not change what it can/can't do ... we couldn't use this for anything special on Switch1 right?

You mean Popcorn Time, right?

WebKit 613.0

Any downloadable file, such as a txt file, opens automatically. It is not possible to select files.

I'd love to find out it's more modern/powerful than on S1 but I highly doubt it.
I hated the fact that on S1 it wasn't even able to play media from my PLEX server.
When I prepared for Avengers Endgame in cinema, I uploaded all previous MCU movies to one of those 1$ Google Drive Unlimited accounts from eBay because to my surprise, the S1 browser was indeed able to play videos from Google Drive. I knew that the account would be nuked any day but for 1$ I was totally fine with it for a few weeks and managed to watch all MCU movies (one each night in bed before sleeping) and tbh it was pretty cool.

You can even do it without the dns thing... I was able to log into my google account, browse my gdrive files, even chatted with gemini for a while. Interestingly google shows a banner about the browser not being supported anymore...
It's super sluggish, youtube, mail and even modern google search doesn't work, the browser throws an error

Exactly I uploaded a GitHub rep back when the switch released for this

It still works without any modifications “DNSwitch4all”

What kinds of video sites?

I remember it being so cumbersome to use the browser on the original Switch - so much stuff didn't load, either due to an incompatibility or due to a deliberate block implemented by Nintendo.

No address bar either, you had to navigate back to the initial page for that.

And in addition to all that, there was a forced invisible timer that closes the browser.

I have my doubts that any of this is better on the Switch 2, to be honest.

There was never a timer lmao

Yes, there absolutely was a timer. After some time, a pop-up appeared saying something like "This window will now close" without a cancel button.
