If your website requires active content in order to display plaintext, images and navigation, then yes, it is poorly developed. You failed to use the right tool for the job.
- pc86 10y agoNavigation is typically comprised of text and/or images. Some websites need more than text or images.
- zzzcpan 10y agoVery few websites, maybe 1 out of 100, most offenders are just rendering content in the browser for some reason. Although even bigger offenders are not individuals, but companies, outright blocking access to client's websites without javascript. So far it's mostly Cloudflare, I think most people using the web without javascript hate them the most, hopefully the trend won't continue.
- OJFord 10y agoCloudflare blocks access to sites behind it to users with JS enabled? Even if there's no JS on the site? 1. Is there anything the site owner can do to turn that off? 2. Is it because they inject some kind of DDoS prevention/tracking thing? This suggests crawlers load JS, which I wouldn't have necessarily assumed.
- throwaway2048 10y agocloudflare can whitelist crawlers like google. The fact it blocks other automatic robots is more of a feature than a flaw.
- OJFord 10y agoRequiring visitors to have JS enabled isn't (a very good) feature.
