Depends on what people mean by 'websites'.

There's a lot of pie in the sky JavaScript discussion where folks talk about going without / this site doesn't need JS and so forth and I imagine they're talking about sites largely with static content and text where the user just consumes that and doesn't interact much beyond navigation.

I think those are valid points to some extent... and I'm not sure how many sites really are purely static no matter how much we might wish they were. I admit I miss that internet too but ...

On the other hand I work on a lot of 'web applications' for businesses... zero JS is not really an option.

As for how many people care overall about a lack of JS on a page, I'm pretty sure it is very small.
