Instead of DOSLynx try Links 2.18 or Lynx 2.8.9 for DOS. They work
marvelously well in my 386DX40 with 8MBy. They can open any https site.
Several years ago, a wrote a suite for reading NNTP news with Arachne:

I regularly read NNTP news using UKA-PPP and Yarn.

Yes, FreeDOS 1.2/OpenDOS 7.0, on a '95 Pentium Pro, IDE controllers,
SB16, Realtek 8139 Ethernet, UHCI USB. It's mainly meant for retro-gaming, but
I also take notes while studying, write docs on Corel WP 6.22, read PDFs through pdf2ps+ghostscript+pictview, code on Elvis/FreeMacs, learn C, listen to music on (OCP) Open Cubic Player, browse http pages with Dillo, and DOSLynx, Gopher with Gopherus (have many Phloggers friends, especially NetBSD/SDF guys), exchange files with my NAS with FTP/SSHDOS, play TELNET games, read mails with Mutt/FlMail, attend Usenet groups with Arachne, try legacy software, test new software releases for FreeDOS repo....there's just so many things to do if you actually think about it. When in need of
a GUI OpenGEM is my favorite, as featured, acceptably lightweight, and still relatively actively maintained.
