Seems kind of pointless. Browsers are basically just virtual machines that run web applications at this point. I can’t even think of any plain text and image websites besides my own.
- sefrost 4y agoHacker News?
- marginalia_nu 4y agoThere are plenty, you're using the wrong navigational tools ;-)
- krick 4y agoExactly. I never understood all these "I don't enable js" comments. You kinda usually don't need to disable js on sites that are usable without js. And if you feel the urge to disable it, it is most likely that without js it's an empty page anyway.
- GoblinSlayer 4y agoIt's difficult to tell whether the site will be usable with js before opening it, so js disabled by default provides better UX: it makes both usable and unusable sites usable. Then after the site proved itself, you can enable js if you know what you miss.

- GoblinSlayer 4y agoMost sites are plain text with only a few exceptions like youtube. And even then video doesn't need javascript.
