Do you have any actual arguments to back up your opinion?
- kaba0 5y agoCopying my previous answer to a similarly bad idea: “ Browsers run untrusted code 0-24, which get JIT compiled to machine code through a very complex and bug-prone process. Add to that that desktop OSs are quite lacking when it comes to sandboxes, so even with browser sandboxes, the potential for serious damage is quire big. So, staying ahead of bugs is a must.”
- forgotmypw17 5y agoIt's impossible to stay ahead of the bugs, because they appear ahead of the patches, and there are undoubtedly many unpatched bugs out there. But if I only visit sites where this is unlikely (and don't allow JavaScript, which you seem to have missed) I am much safer than when browsing willy-nilly with the latest patches.
- kaba0 5y agoBrowsing the web with JS disabled on an up-to-date browser is still much safer. But you do you.
- forgotmypw17 5y agoIt's safer if it is an option.
