        But every page had blinking marquees, crappy color schemes, and frames.

      If you're willing to have some sites break a bit at first then improve for ones you visit regularly, uMatrix in Firefox is excellent. Many items are disabled by default, but for sites you visit regularly you simply save the rule tweaks you've made for future use.

      My stance on this is that your site should be better if you activate javascript but it should fall back gracefully into a readable format without it.

        Your stance on web programming doesn't make a JS-free web reality.

      > Breaks JavaScript That's a feature, not a bug. JS is super useful, but only when used correctly. It's rarely used correctly anymore.
