Does this work without javascript?

I know folks that are very privacy conscious that are used to and hate cookie popups and will treat formbricks as just another cookie popup and will adblock, download a blocklist, or use a PiHole to remove intrusive popups automatically.

No, it requires Javascript. Our goal is to avoid survey fatigue and not annoy users, so by default a user will only be shown a survey once a week, and only surveys they haven't answered or seen before and closed before.

Also since it can be self-hosted, it can be served from the same domain as the application within the survey. We also see the surveys as part of the application and a necessary part for the maintainers to provide their service.

they will do the same without javascript then, why would a privacy conscious person reply to a survey - the opposite of privacy?
