| It's the kind of thing where you have to try it for yourself. No javascript == best user experience possible. * instant load times * stable performance * no tracking, and sometimes even no ads * no stupid animations that break scrolling, ask you to sign up for newsletters, etc * no hijacked back button, or disabled highlighting/copy/paste, or pop ups/unders Unless you're trying to play games, or use some complicated web application like an IDE, javascript offers absolutely nothing of value to you. It only exists to benefit the owner of the website. For 99.999% of web browsing use-cases, HTML/CSS is all that's needed. The only situation I can think of where javascript has the potential to offer an improved user experience is with infinite scrolling. That's personal preference though, so if it's something you value, I could understand wanting to enable javascript. (also, I just checked and noticed that Twitter refuses to work if you disable js. Fuck you, Twitter.) |
And yet in every thread there's at least one person complaining about the posted link not working with JS disabled.
