Richard Stallman (RMS) also uses the Web from Emacs. But I believe he pastes URLs into a program that sends him a screen copy by email (at least as of approx. 20 years ago, when I last saw him in person).
His motive is not mindfulness, but ideology.

Love him or hate him, but I shudder to think of a world without him. The Tech Trinity is: Thompson, Stallman and Torvalds.

Donald Knuth has his secretary print his email. He'll handwrite replies on the paper, and she'll send them out.
