I have a separate browser profile for all general purpose (not Google, FB, or any account-based services) browsing. I use uBlock origin to block all first and third party JS, and also third party frames.
Most of the browsing I do in this profile is reading articles or visiting sites that are mostly text and images. The speed gains are enormous as is the improvement in performance on my lower powered laptop. I just don't see the need to enable JS unless the site breaks. If the site breaks it is either poorly written, in which case I have the option to bounce, or uses a JS framework like React or whatever in which case I allow at most first-party JS. If it works it works.
