I use ff+uBO with js disabled by default, and then I peace-out when I see blank white pages that don't even render using reader view, temporarily allow if I think it'll be worthwhile, and whitelist for sites I either use regularly or deem trustworthy enough. I have surprisingly few websites whitelisted, and I don't usually toggle it. Things like Nitter and Teddit work just fine. Wikipedia and HN don't need it. Many news sites don't really break without it, and if they do then that is my peace-out territory. And some even offer text-only, like Lite CNN and text.npr.org to name a couple.
What do I actually need javascript for? It actually is really easy to do without for the majority of what I use the web for anyway. YMMV.
- cercatrova 4y agoDisabling JS works for document based websites. How do you use web apps however, like banking sites, email, travel sites, etc? I use uBO too with FF but I found that disabling JS globally is too annoying for many sites that are not documents. I use Twitter and Reddit (and not their alternatives you listed) because I have accounts that I want to use to comment on things for example.
