They are not saying:
js on any site -> okay, I enable permanently
wasm on any site -> not okay, will never enable
But rather:
js disabled -> I often get a fallback warning message letting me know a site needs it to work
wasm disabled -> I'd like a similar kind of message
So they don't have to guess at the cause(s). I.e. they don't mind Anubis moved to WASM over JS in itself, they mind there is no fallback warning message letting them know that's the missing requirement. In general, I agree with the problem trend. Most users get pushed along auto-update tracks these days and so fallback behavior has often fallen out of mind with the newer technologies even though it's so easy to implement. That's almost expected with "normal" pages and the lack of time to put into them but when you push something which will affect many sites it's probably worth the reminder for a fallback message.
- swiftcoder 1mo agoRight, but the base assumption here is unfounded. Disabling WASM isn't in any way equivalent to disabling Javascript - you are just kneecapping your own browser performance, rather than closing off a large attack surface.
