Hi Vitaliy,

Closing since a dedicated tool for use in Emacs (emacs-debbugs) exists,
which works around the shortcomings of the Emacs web browsers (Probably
CSS related, as Mark pointed out).

Thanks,

Maxim

Hello again dear Guixen.
I use emacs-w3m as a browser on  a single board computer.  I want to read, for example, issue #43159.

I can read it on https://debbugs.gnu.org/43159.  It's formatted properly, and the patch is readable too.

But the https://issues.guix.gnu.org/43159
is barely readable, and the patch is unreadable at all.  Even quoted text appear as:
> line > another line > more lines..

I think the issues.guix.gnu.org  should automatically append a link to the debbugs.gnu.org, for all issues.  It can be named like <a>No-JS version here</a>, or so.

The Links browser also can't show issues.guix.gnu.org properly for now.

Thanks.
