"Today's web" works just fine without Javascript if you browse around. One can easily enabled it per-site in good browsers for the sites where you actually need it.

It has the nice benefit that a lot of distracting annoyances (just to mention snap.com, most advertising, those pesky "2000 social web icons popup" footers) simply disappear.

If you want '"today's web"' with all its glittery blingbling and distractions, then go ahead. But don't fall for the illusion that you would miss anything by browsing with Javascript off by default.
