> Anybody claiming they regularly use the internet with JS disabled is just lying for some sort of feel of superiority. Nope. I do, and I'm not lying. I started because it was required for my work and I just got used to it and now do it everywhere. The internet with NoScript is the best way to browse 90% of the time. Even today, the vast majority of the sites I visit (including the one linked to in this post) work just fine (for what I want) without JS. That means the text I clicked to read is displayed and is readable, the images I clicked to view are displayed, etc. Other parts of the site may not work (menus for example), but if I'm just following a link to an article I want to read and I can read it without javascript why do I care if the menus on the site are broken or if i can't leave a comment? For the sites I regularly visit that really do need JS I enable only the JS files needed to accomplish the things that I want and that's only necessary to do one time for each site. NoScript remembers my preferences on each domain. For those rare occasions I actually need to enable JS to get the functionality I want on a site I'm visiting only once I can just temp allow only the scripts I need to get the content I want and the next time I close my browser (or clear those temp permissions by hand) that site is no longer allowed to use JS. Ill admit that for some random sites I wasn't that interested in in the first place, there are times where I'll still just close the tab and move on. I really don't understand why people think it's so hard to use the web with NoScript. Overall, websites load much faster and look cleaner without JS and I'm much much more secure. Most of the time, it's really not a problem. I will say, I do have an add-on called NukeAnything that lets you right click and remove whatever you want from webpages (only until the page is reloaded) and that occasionally does help fix some issues for sites that don't handle the lack of JS gracefully. If somebody's poorly designed JS heavy menu is spewed all over the page and covering the content I want to see, I can just right click and remove it. Same with obnoxious "we use cookies" banners that I refuse to interact with. Honesty it's the other things I've done to harden the browser (disabling redirects, service workers, WebGL, WebRTC, Wasm, location sharing, DRM, plugins, cookies, web storage, etc.) that cause the most problems with sites, and I do keep another unhardened browser around (brave atm) to handle the sites I absolutely need to access that depend on that junk.
