The default has been shr the last couple (?) of years:
,----[ C-h v mm-text-html-renderer RET ]
| mm-text-html-renderer is a variable defined in `mm-decode.el'.
| Its value is shr
|
| Documentation:
| Render of HTML contents.
| It is one of defined renderer types, or a rendering function.
| The defined renderer types are:
| `shr': use the built-in Gnus HTML renderer;
| `gnus-w3m': use Gnus renderer based on w3m;
| `w3m': use emacs-w3m;
| `w3m-standalone': use plain w3m;
| `links': use links;
| `lynx': use lynx;
| `html2text': use html2text;
| nil : use external viewer (default web browser).
|
| You can customize this variable.
|
| This variable was introduced, or its default value was changed, in
| version 24.1 of Emacs.
`----
shr is available as a stand-alone browser using M-x eww
Best regards,
Adam

Is there a more recent or better way to render html messages than
emacs-w3m?
Near as I can tell, the last release was 10 yrs ago.
Even w3m itself dates back to 2011.

You can check out and install emacs-w3m from cvs, see [1]. It is
well-maintained. And it's great! :)

Not sure what you mean by `well maintainted'.. The page you cite
appears to say the most recent version was released in 2005. No new
versions since then.

I recently switched from emacs-w3m to shr and I've found it a much
better renderer.

Good to hear. Did it require any special lisp in gnus.el?

Don't know, but it does require libxml2.so (libxml2.dll on Windows) to
be linked into Gnus at runtime.

Harry> Good to hear. Did it require any special lisp in gnus.el?
No. Since it's the default all I had to do was remove the line which set
mm-text-html-renderer to 'w3m.

emacs-w3m no longer does "releases", but it's actively maintained. You
just have to pull it down via CVS.
